title: [Allogeneic kidney transplantation. Preoperative, perioperative and postoperative management].
abstract: Allogeneic renal transplantation is the best treatment for many patients with chronic renal failure and end-stage kidney disease. Especially the health-related quality of life markedly improves after renal transplantation and the side effects of dialysis treatment as well as the progression of organ and tissue deterioration related to renal failure which are not treated effectively by dialysis are greatly reduced. To achieve good results of renal transplantation, however, the best possible preoperative as well as perioperative and postoperative conditions have to be established and patients on waiting lists need to be well prepared. Interdisciplinary patient care is needed before and after renal transplantation in order to achieve durable and long-term success of renal transplantation.
