Abstract

In their study authors compared the results of renal transplantations in a group of 51 patients with relative contraindications to a remaining group of 413 patients. Congenital anomalies or previously performed operations of urinary tract, previous renal transplantations, laparotomies, peritoneal dialysis, extreme atherosclerosis of the aorta and iliac arteries were regarded as relative contraindications. Results of the treatment do not differ considerably in both groups of patients what confirms the necessity of renal transplantations in difficult recipients.
