title: The outcome of 48 renal transplantations immunosuppressed with cyclosporine-A as monotherapy.
abstract: The course of 48 consecutive cadaveric renal transplantations immunosuppressed with Cyclosporine-A (CyA) as monotherapy in 3 different doses was retrospectively analysed. CyA doses were based on clinical observations. Overall one-year graft survival was 52% and for grafts immediate diuresing 82%. A dosage schedule of 12 mg CyA/kg/day seemed to secure graft function without any side effects to the patient.
