Abstract

Introduction: Children with coronary renal failure has problems with their CATCH-UP GROWTH. The aim of this study was the Assessment of CATCH-UP GROWTH.of children ater RENAL TRANSPLANTATION by analyzing the 6 months cahnges in HEIGHT DEFICIT and hight standard deviation scores (SDS) on age, sex, initial heght deficit, initial SDS , graft function, renal faiure duration and RENAL TRANSPLANTATION duration. Methods and Materials: Between 22 Septamber 1998 and 2000, 25 pediatric recipients followed up quarterly for heght in the Labafi-Nejad hospital. Data on height submitted at each 6 -month follow-up were converted into height and SDS. All the results were analyzed by simple and multiple regression and t-test. Results; 68 percents were male and 32 percent were female Mean age at transplantation was 10.39±2.95 SD years. The average duration of RENAL TRANSPLANTATION was 20.7±8.96 SDmonths. The aerage of HEIGHT DEFICIT was 20.7 cm (±10.55 SD) and SDS - 3.5 (±1.72 SD) at the time of RENAL TRANSPLANTATION. The HEIGHT DEFICIT was more significant in the patients with tubulopathy. CATCH-UP GROWTH.observed at month 12. That was more obvious in females, in patients with tubulopathy disorders, in preemptives and in all three age groups. Simple and stepwise regression analysis showed that at month 12 only initial heght deficit (p<0.05) and at month 24, only sex (p<0.05) were independent predictor of improved height post transplantation. CATCH-UP GROWTH.were seen in more student patients and girls. This may be the result of puberty spurt that ocure two years sooner in girls than in boys. Conclusion: In this study we concluded that the RENAL TRANSPLANTATION alone is not sufficient measure for correction of CATCH-UP GROWTH.in renal failure children and because of that the other treatments should come under consoderation.
