Could 10% kidney function make you ineligible for a transplant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A kidney transplant is meant precisely for someone with less than 10% kidney function. There are of course other medical disorders that can make someone ineligible for a kidney transplant, and a transplant nephrologist can help counsel you with more specific advise if needed.
