Özet

Introduction. Reluctance to perform kidney transplantations on children is an ongoing problem in Turkey. Moreover, urological pathologies still constitute the largest portion of the underlying etiologies in chronic renal failure patients. Herein, we retrospective analyzed the data acquired from our pediatric renal transplantation patients and reviewed the registry of dialysis and transplantation data prepared by the Turkish Society of Nephrology.
