[Kidney transplantation in children].
Renal transplantation has become an established form of therapy for children with endstage renal disease. Evaluation and elimination of potential risk factors, standardization of operative technique and better immunosuppressive regimens improved the outcome in paediatric patients. A shortage or organs means that transplantations cannot always be offered to children for whom it would be the treatment of choice. Kidney donation by living relatives opens up the potential for optimal rehabilitation of patients in the paediatric age group.
