La néphrologie pédiatrique (NP) a connu ces dernières années des progrès impressionnants en matière de soins. Cependant, le plus grand défi dans notre continent africain est de fournir aux enfants atteints de maladie rénale l’accès à une prise en
charge spécialisée par des néphrologu...es pédiatriques ayant une bonne formation, ainsi que la possibilité d’avoir un accès abordable aux techniques modernes, aux médicaments efficaces et à des stratégies de prévention. En Afrique, le développement de la NP a été très lent et sans collaboration réelle entre les pays concernés, ce qui a renforcé ma conviction sur la nécessité d’amener les néphrologues pédiatres africains à œuvrer ensemble, par le biais d’un ouvrage commun, à mettre en lumière les données spécifiques de notre continent dans ce domaine.
