The evolution of pediatric kidney donation and transplantation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia underscores the transformative effects of strategic initiatives and institutional reforms aimed at fostering self-sufficiency and ethical stewardship in transplantation. The ascendance of the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation as a regional hub for organ procurement and transplantation is a testament to Saudi Arabia's commitment to advancing health care delivery and promoting international collaboration in combating organ trafficking and commercialism. Moving forward, sustained investments in infrastructure, capacity building, and regulatory oversight will be paramount to addressing emerging challenges and consolidating Saudi Arabia's position as a global leader in transplantation. By prioritizing patient welfare, ethical principles, and operational excellence, Saudi Arabia is poised to shape the future trajectory of pediatric kidney transplantation and usher in a new era of health care innovation and equity within the region and beyond.
