  • Title: Maximizing growth in children after renal transplantation.
    Author: Cochat P, Harambat J.
    Journal: Transplantation; 2009 Dec 27; 88(12):1321-2. PubMed ID: 20029327.
    Abstract:
    Achieving normal height in children after renal transplantation is a crucial issue for both quality of life and self-esteem. The management of growth retardation in renal transplant recipients includes adequate nutritional intake, correction of acidosis, optimal drug compliance, limited calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity, steroid-sparing strategies, and sometimes recombinant human growth hormone.
