We appreciate the letter from the Dr Jahromi in response to our article. First, in our study, there were limited cases (n = 5) of kidney transplant recipients aged less than 5 years old. However, the two groups were compared with regards to this factor and no significant difference was observed (P = .25). Second, 39 patients received preemptive transplantation, 43 were on hemodialysis and 5 were on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis before transplantation; comparing the two groups revealed no significant differences with regards to this factor.
