Pediatric kidney transplantation part 5




For most children kidney transplantation is considered the optimal treatment for kidney failure. Some children require a period on dialysis before proceeding with a kidney transplant. Other children, whose kidney function is slowly getting worse, will have enough time  to plan for a transplant without needing to undergo dialysis.  This is called a preemptive kidney transplant.
