Abstract:
Approximately 700 pediatric kidney transplants were performed in 2014, with roughly one-third of those being living-related kidney transplantations. There are distinct differences between renal disease and transplantation in children compared to adults. Overall, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is less common in the pediatric population than in adults. While the most common etiology for ESRD in adults is diabetes mellitus, the most common etiologies of ESRD in the pediatric population are congenital, such as dysplastic kidney or obstructive uropathy. Surgical technique can also vary depending on

Abstract:
The choice of treatment for end-stage kidney disease is an important one for patients. Ideally this should happen as a coordinated process over a period of time, supported by education and individualized treatment planning discussions to assist the patient in making an informed choice about their treatment. In this setting, patients suitable for transplantation may select this treatment modality and potentially, especially if there is a living kidney donor, be transplanted before the need for dialysis. Other patients may choose between dialysis modalities, between home and in-centre treatment,

Abstract:
Kidney transplantation is by far the best therapeutic option for most end-stage renal disease patients. However, there is an increased demand for donor organs worldwide, which cannot be met by the number of currently available organs. Live donation is the key to solving this problem, at least for kidneys. Besides the advantages of better patient and graft survival, short ischaemia times, and pre-emptive transplantation, live donor kidney transplantation offers many creative options to facilitate more transplants, such as paired kidney exchange programmes (or cross-over), unspecified and domino

Abstract:
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a diagnosis typically made following imaging of the renal tract. The characteristic features of enlarged bilateral polycystic kidneys with or without liver cysts and a positive family history allow a secure diagnosis to be made for the majority of affected individuals. Other conditions may mimic ADPKD and features of these diseases should always be sought before making a diagnosis. Genetic testing for ADPKD is now widely available and its use in clinical practice is being evaluated. It is likely to have a role in cases with diagnostic unc

Abstract:
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) can be managed with kidney transplantation, hemodialysis, or peritoneal dialysis. The most common organ transplanted in the United States is the kidney. Kidney transplantation surgery can be divided into the following stages: incision/dissection of vessels, cross-clamping vessels, vascular anastomosis, unclamping of vessels, ureter anastomosis to bladder, and closing. The size of recipient and donor kidneys as well as the size of recipient blood vessels will determine the position of graft implantation—either intraperitoneal or extraperitoneal. At t

Cardiovascular disease is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is the biggest contributor of death in these patients.

Non-invasive stress imaging, with MPI or other imaging modalities, is widely used for risk stratification in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) being evaluated for kidney transplantation due to the paucity of donor organs and the high cardiovascular risk of patient

Genotypes in APOL1 of African origin are associated with higher incidence of FSGS and poorer responses to treatment.

Abstract:
Alport antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare example of disease caused by allo-sensitization after renal transplantation, first described in 1992. Because the recipient lacks a specific glomerular basement membrane (GBM) protein, they can become sensitized to the normal molecule present in the GBM of the donor kidney. The disease is restricted to the allograft. Interestingly severe disease arises from this only arises rarely, certainly less than 1 in 20, probably closer to 1 in 50.

A very approximate overall rate of end-stage renal disease of 1% per year has been suggested.
