Abstract

Kidney transplantation is the first line treatment for children with terminal renal failure. In addition to the survival rate of children and transplanted kidneys, the overall condition of the child with respect to growth and development is particularly important. The aims of pediatric renal transplantation are treatment strategies which minimize the side effects of immunosuppression and permit normal growth and development.
