The Efficacy of Plasmapheresis and Double Filtration Plasmapheresis (DFPP) in Kidney Transplant

"Plasmapheresis is the removal, treatment, and return or exchange of blood plasma or components thereof from and to the blood circulation. It is thus an extracorporeal therapy (a medical procedure performed outside the body).\[Wikipedia\]~DFPP is a selectively removal of the immunoglobulin fraction from the serum and, as a result, to minimize the volume of substitution fluid required. \[Tanabe K. Double-filtration plasmapheresis. Transplantation. 2007 Dec 27;84(12 Suppl):S30-2.\]"
