hello
Thanks for query .
Your relative has Chronic Paranchymal kidney disease and has been advised kidney transplant ;

Primary requirement for kidney transplant is that the donor and recipient should be of the same blood group .

Since fathers blood group is different from the patient he can not donate his kidney to his son .

You will need to search for matching donor having same blood group before other tests are being carried out .

The cost of the procedure differ from hospital to hospital but it should be roughly 2 -2.5 lakhs Indian Rupees.
