title: [The first 100 kidney transplants undertaken at the University of Innsbruck (author's transl)].
abstract: 100 kidney-transplantations had been performed in Innsbruck between January 22, 1974 and August 28, 1980. Following a period of 10 months after the hundredth transplantation, 78% of the patients had survived, and 65% of the grafts were functioning. 165 cases of rejection had taken place during the above mentioned period of observation. 112 cases of bacterial infection, 14 cases of viral infection, and 36 cases of fungal infection had been diagnosed and treated. The rate of surgical complications was extremely low. Further complications included gastrointestinal complaints, hypertensive crises, and thrombosis of the pelvic veins.
