Abstract
The European Dialysis and Transplant Association EDTA Registry was established in the mid 1960s and its annual reports for many years provided important information on the treatment of children in Europe with renal diseases The last report of the former European Renal Association ERAEDTA Registry based in London was in 1996 Unfortunately shortly thereafter for a number of reasons the Registry collapsed However in June 2000 the ERAEDTA Registry was reestablished in Amsterdam The Netherlands and the first report of this new European Registry on renal replacement therapy is now published Effective collaboration of single national registries with the new ERA Registry is important for the future development of new successful treatment strategies in pediatric renal medicine
