description INTRODUCTION: Pregnancy in patients with end-stage renal disease is rare due to numerous factors that impair fertility. Even if pregnancy does occur pregnancy outcome with a live birth has a low success rate. CASE PRESENTATION: We report two cases of successful pregnancy in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. CONCLUSION: The purpose of hemodialysis is not only to maintain life but also to make quality of life as normal as possible for the end-stage renal disease patient. Propagation of life is basic to all life forms and the ability to do so can be considered as a success in a patient with end-stage renal disease.
