    Notes: Abstract We report two brothers with renal dysplasia and congenital hepatic fibrosis. One patient died shortly after birth of lung hypoplasia. The second developed end-stage renal failure at 14 months. The hepatic fibrosis progressed to cirrhosis and hepatic failure. Pancreatic function was normal, but increased echogenicity was seen on ultrasound. At age 3 years and 9 months a successful combined liver-kidney transplantation was performed. The features of our patients are compatible with the “renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia” syndrome. Conclusion Renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia is an autosomal recessive disorder with variable expression. Combined liver-kidney transplantation offers a new therapeutic option.

    Notes: Abstract Eighteen patients aged 5–18 years on regular dialysis had a packed cell volume (PCV)〈0.27. On treatment with epoetin alfa (EA) PCV increased by 0.05 or more in all patients. Iron supplementation was necessary in 13 patients with a ferritinaemia 〈300 μg/l before study. During treatment, plasma potassium increased significantly and more vigorous antihypertensive measures were required in 8 patients, 5 of them being already on antihypertensive drugs before EA. Iliofemoral thrombosis occurred in 1 patient 10 days after renal transplant. The data indicate that EA ameliorates the anaemia of chronic renal disease. The main concerns arising during treatment with EA are hyperkalaemia, arterial hypertension and possibly thrombosis.
