Report
My grandfather (84 year old) have history of high bp. His recent report shows: urea (gldh) 149.60 mg/dl, creatinine (enzymatic, serum) 6.40 mg/dl, uric acid (uricase, serum) 11.6 mg/dl protein, total (biuret) 5.8 g/dl. He is going through his 3rd dialysis. Is there any chance that his kidneys would recover?

A person undergoing dialysis has very less chance of recovery. The only best permanent solution for this is a transplant.

Considering the age of the patient and the details shared it very unlikely that the kidneys would recover completely. I would suggest a kidney transplant.
