Core Tip	Several novelties in the immunosuppressive treatment regimens in kidney transplantation in children are becoming available, with the aim of reducing the long terms side effects, particularly growth retardation, infections and malignancies, as well as improving the long term survival of the graft through a better treatment of chronic rejection. Moreover new induction drugs and specific protocols addressed to sensitized subjects may widen the possibility to receive a graft even for highly immunized children. These innovative aspects of therapy in kidney transplantation in children are reviewed.
