Abstract
Kidney transplantation remains the gold standard treatment for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), effectively alleviating numerous comorbidities and offering a substantial survival advantage over long-term dialysis. Despite advancements in immunosuppressive regimens and improvements in graft and patient survival rates, extended patient longevity brings an accumulating burden and complexity of bone disease in this population, which often goes underrecognized. The present study reviews the pathophysiology of CKD-MBD in pediatric KTR, focusing on the progression of bone disease before and after transplantation. We aim to enhance understanding of available screening options, highlighting their advantages and limitations, to support more informed decision-making in CKD-MBD management.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Pediatric Transplantation is to publish original articles of the highest quality on clinical experience and basic research in transplantation of tissues and solid organs in infants, children and adolescents. The journal seeks to disseminate the latest information widely to all individuals involved in kidney, liver, heart, lung, intestine and stem cell (bone-marrow) transplantation. In addition, the journal publishes focused reviews on topics relevant to pediatric transplantation as well as timely editorial comment on controversial issues.
