Abstract
La transition en transplantation rénale constitue une étape importante dans la vie d'un jeune adolescent greffé. Durant cette période, les impératifs de la greffe se heurtent aux changements physiologiques et psychologiques de l'adolescence, avec un risque augmenté de non-observance thérapeutique et donc de perte du greffon. Il n'existe pas encore un modèle optimal de transition unanimement accepté, mais il a été démontré que la mise en place d'une équipe multidisciplinaire de professionnels pédiatres et adultes, ayant une formation dans la gestion des adolescents et jeunes adultes, est bénéfique. Cette équipe doit assurer une transition progressive des jeunes patients vers la clinique adulte selon un plan bien défini.
Transition from pediatric to adult care in renal transplantation has emerged as a critical step in the life of a young kidney recipient. During this phase, young patients are faced with the physiological and psychological changes associated with adolescence that can lead to non-compliance and potentially graft loss. To date, there is not a unique accepted model of transition, however it has been proved that the presence of a multidisciplinary team including specialists in adolescent management and in the transition from pediatric to adult transplant care is beneficial during this at-risk phase. The goal of this team is to ensure a progressive transition of the patients according to a precise plan and time line.
