Abstract

The article discusses the growing number of elderly patients with chronic kidney disease. Renal transplantation is considered to be an effective treatment modality for end-stage kidney disease. The authors provide the analysis of renal transplantation results (2009-2013) in two groups: patients aged 18 to 55 years and those older than 55 years. In conclusions, renal transplantation offers a substantial advantage in elderly patients.
