Answer: The procedure RJ is preparing to undergo is called KIDNEY TRANSPLANT.
Explanation:
RJ was diagnosed with renal failure for the past 10 years. For him to have been in this condition for a period of 10 years depicts chronic renal failure. This is a type of kidney disease in which there is progressive loss of function of more and more nephrons that gradually decreases overall kidney function with time. The following can cause chronic renal failure:
--> Metabolic disorders: these include diabetes mellitus, obesity
--> Hypertension
--> Infections: Example is tuberculosis
--> Urinary tract obstruction
--> Congenital disorders
In chronic renal failure, the irreversible decrease in the number of functional nephrons eventually leads to KIDNEY TRANSPLANT.
Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure which is performed by a nephrologist where by a kidney from a compatible donor is transferred to a recipient. This procedure requires only one kidney from the donor, which when surgically implanted in RJ it would help perform blood filtration.
