Chronic renal failure: an overview from a pediatric perspective
Abstract
We present data on the costs and impact of chronic renal failure, the primary renal diseases leading to end-stage renal disease in children, and review the adaptive responses and the pathophysiology and complications of uremia in experimental animals and in man. A treatment strategy is summarized.
