In the period from April 1965 to August 1988 the kidneys of 65 patients were removed in the pretransplantation period in the Department of Kidney Transplantation of the All-Union Research Center of Surgery, AMS USSR. The operation was undertaken for the hypertonic form of chronic glomerulonephritis in 36 and for pyelonephritis and polycystic disease of the kidneys in 34 patients.
