Original Research
In this first report on the experience with renal transplantation in children and
adolescents in southern Iran during the past five years, thirty-two patients (aged 5-
19 years old 18 males, 14 females) received renal allografts. Pretransplantation
pathologic diagnoses by kidney biopsy were: membranoproliferative
glomerulonephritis (MPGN), rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN),
chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, reflux nephropathy,
obstructive uropathy and renal tubular acidosis (RTA). The cause of ESRD was
unknown in eleven cases. Overall one year graft survival was 89%, 71 % at two
years, and 50% at four years. The overall patient survival at one year was 93% and
at two years, 86%. Well-being and remarkable improvement of physical,
emotional, biochemical and endocrinological impairment were noticeable in 74%
of the patients. No recurrence of primary disease was detected during the study
period.
