Abstract
The causes that lead to terminal renal failure in children and adolescents and subsequently require dialysis are different from those in adults. Moreover, children with a functioning kidney transplant evidence an approximately fourfold higher survival probability than children on dialysis. This contribution describes kidney transplantation in light of the specific features for this age group.Entities:
