title: [Surgical and infectious complications after kidney transplantation].
abstract: Analysis of 100 consecutive cadaverous renal transplants revealed significantly better long-term graft function and patient survival rates and lower incidence of surgical postoperative complications in the second 50 transplants in comparison with the first 50 transplants. The incidence of infectious complications declined with the decrease in the corticosteroids dosage. Severe mycotic infections were prevented by prophylactic administration of antimycotic drugs and by shortening the period of prophylactic antibiotic treatment to 24 hours.
