Summary

The case history of an 18-year-old patient with renal rickets, who recovered within one year after successful kidney transplantation is presented; because of valgus deformity of lower limbs, however, corrective osteotomy with limb detorsion had to be performed. This surgery did not impair the renal graft function in anyway, and contributed to an improvement in the final effect of the transplantation.
