Abstract:
Renal transplantation has been done successfully in Europe and USA since the first years of 1950s. As regard to the countries in which renal transplantation is still undeveloped, it is very necessary out the program of experimental renal transplantation. Through experiment, personals are trained, experienced staff is formed, preparing for human renal transplantation. Since 1992, in Cho Ray hospital, we carried out 56 operations in dogs. Autograff method is used. Kidney are washed and preserved by Vina-Collin fluid or cold Ringer's Lactat at 4oC. Thanks to the improvement of technique, the mortality is reduced from 50% in the beginning of the program to 16% at present.
