[Surgical aspects of renal transplantation in children].
Review of a series of 90 renal transplantations performed in 86 children revealed 3 cases of early or late mortality and 28 cases of major surgical complications, predominantly vascular (13 cases) and urological complications (12 cases). The time to onset, the diagnosis and the management of these complications are reviewed. This study again emphasizes the importance of graft selection (donor age) and the value of living related donor renal transplantation.
