Maternal and Fetal Outcomes After Living Kidney Donation Journal Articles

abstract

• Women considering kidney donation frequently ask whether a nephrectomy will impact their ability to have children. Two new studies consider this issue. We place the new information in the context of previous literature and practice guidelines, and discuss how we should counsel and care for our donors in the year 2009.
