Abstract:
The analysis of the results of the renal replacement therapies,renal transplantation for 23 cases,hemodialysis for 33 cases,in 56 elderly patients with chronic renal function failure was performed.The total mortality in transplanted group with a higher early mortality is lower than that in hemodialysis group.The living quality of transplanted group was better than of the hemodialysis group.The associated diseases prior to the replacement therapies were the contributions to the death.It was believed that the age has not been served as a limitation for elderly patients receiving renal transplantation. As a replacement therapies the operation should be choosed first by elderly patients.A strictly preoperative physical examination should be done and a postoperatively special cure plan that is suited to the elderly drawn up.
