Long-Term Outcomes of Kidney Transplantation in Children.
Pediatric Clinics of North America 2019 Februrary
Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in children and confers improved survival, skeletal growth, heath-related quality of life, and neuropsychological development compared with dialysis. Kidney transplantation in children with ESRD results in 10-year patient survival exceeding 90%. Therefore, the long-term management of these patients is focused on maintaining quality of life and minimizing long-term side effects of immunosuppression. Optimal management of pediatric kidney transplant recipients includes preventing rejection and infection, identifying and reducing the cardiovascular and metabolic effects of long-term immunosuppressive therapy, supporting normal growth and development, and managing a smooth transition into adulthood.
