Abstract

Rapid developments in the techniques of dialysis and renal transplantation during the past decade have led to a reappraisal of their suitability for children (Cameron, 1973), and experience to date suggests that, by the criterion of survival at least, children fare as well as, if not better than, adults on renal replacement programmes. The availability of these methods of treatment leads to new considerations in the management of children with urological disorders, and makes it essential that the paediatric urologist is aware of the current practice of his regional dialysis and transplant centre.
