title: [Results of 300 kidney transplantations].
abstract: Kidney transplantation is a widely used method for the treatment o fend-stage renal disease. Between September 3, 1993 and December 2002 a total of 300 kidney transplantations were performed at the Department of Surgery at the Medical University of Pécs. In 24 patients simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation was performed. The mean age of the 189 male and 111 female patients was 42 years. The HLA B, Dr tissue antigen mismatches was 1.63. The average cold ischemic time was 1199 minutes whereas the average anastomotic time was 43 minutes. Early surgical complications happened to 16 patients. In spite of the immunosuppressive treatment 26 acute steroid resistant rejection have occurred, 9 of which were irreversible. In our opinion the meticulous surgical technique is as important as the postoperative care is. The early and late complications of 300 renal transplants are reviewed by the authors.
