Immunosuppression in children with primary mitochondrial diseases after kidney transplantation: insight from case series of RMND1-related disease

Key takeaways

Some children with rare mitochondrial diseases, where the tiny power plants inside cells fail, end up needing a new kidney. This write-up describes how doctors handled anti-rejection drugs in children with RMND1-related disease after a transplant. It is a small set of real cases described after the fact, so it offers practical guidance, not proof that one drug plan works better than another.
