Official Title: Application of the Biological Fibrin Based Adhesive for the Prevention of Surgical Complications in the Kidney Transplant
Brief Summary:
Globally there have been about 45,000 kidney transplants last year. Currently, the overall survival of renal transplant receptors is 95% in the first year and 85% at 5 years.
