摘要

Organ transplantation in children and adolescents can be the optimal treatment for several diseases but poses unique medical and psychosocial challenges. These include differences in underlying conditions, infection risk, vaccination strategies, surgical complexity, growth and development issues, as well as family dependency. A crucial phase in the care of adolescent transplant recipients is the transition and transfer into adult medical care. The transition must be well-structured, individualized, and initiated early on to ensure long-term graft function and treatment adherence. Interdisciplinary collaboration, standardized protocols, and psychosocial support are essential for a successful transition and transfer to adult care.
