Core Tip This is the first report on the establishment of a pediatric kidney transplantation program from living-related donors in Uzbekistan. We present detailed surgical techniques, immunological screening protocols, and early clinical outcomes based on the first 20 transplantations. All recipients demonstrated immediate graft function without delayed graft function. At 24 months, patient survival was 95% and graft survival was 90%. This study demonstrates the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of introducing pediatric kidney transplantation in a limited-resource setting, and may serve as a practical model for developing similar programs in other low- and middle-income countries.
