title: Renal transplantation in cystinosis.
abstract: Three children from 6 1/2 to 10 years old received kidney allografts from their parents 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 years ago. Renal function has been stable and the patients have been doing well. Studies of renal tubular function as well as morphologic studies by light and electron microscopy, and microdissection of renal tubules fail to reveal evidence of recurrent disease in the allografted kidneys.
