Compared to general population, patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibit high prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) that increases with a stage of CKD. Traditional and non-traditional risk factors associated with CKD contribute to accelerated atherosclerosis leading to CVD. CVD represents the main cause of morbidity and mortality in CKD population. Pretransplant examination is essential to evaluate and optimize the state of cardiovascular system prior transplantation, thus to minimize risks that could have a negative impact on transplant outcome.
