History of kidney transplantation in Szeged

The first Hungarian kidney transplantation was performed in 1962, in Szeged, by András Németh (1924–1999). The first semester at the university in Szeged started in 1921, so this year we celebrate the centenary. This event inspired authors to review the history of kidney transplantation in Szeged, remembering the first one and point of the cornerstones in the transplant program. The donor of the first Hungarian kidney transplantation was the brother of the recipient. The operation itself was technically successful, but the lack of immunosuppression caused graft rejection, and the patient died after 79 days. His brother, the donor was healthy, after 50 years, and he encouraged everybody to donate organs. The organized kidney transplant program started more than 10 years later, in 1973, in Budapest. The program was supported by the Ministry of Health. Szeged joined the program in 1979 led by Ernő Csajbók and Pál Szenohradszky. In the Transplant Center in Szeged, developed organizationally as well as professionally, 1701 kidney transplantation has been performed up to the end of the year 2021.
