متن کاملDifferential microvasculature dysfunction in living kidney donor transplant recipients: nondialyzed versus dialyzed chronic kidney disease patients.
We hypothesized that there was differential vasomotor dysfunction in the microcirculation between nondialyzed and dialyzed chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. During live donor kidney transplantation procedures, skin arterioles (SkA; internal diameter = 120 +/- 5 microm) from donors (n = 27) and recipients (nondialysis = 15; dialysis = 20) were dissected from the abdominal wall at the incisi...
متن کاملDoes size matter? Kidney transplant donor size determines kidney function among living donors
BACKGROUND Kidney donor outcomes are gaining attention, particularly as donor eligibility criteria continue to expand. Kidney size, a useful predictor of recipient kidney function, also likely correlates with donor outcomes. Although donor evaluation includes donor kidney size measurements, the association between kidney size and outcomes are poorly defined. METHODS We examined the relationsh...
متن کاملJustification for living donor kidney transplantation
From the perspective of a potential kidney transplant recipient: • Kidney transplantation using either live or deceased donors is worthwhile for an individual with renal failure if it significantly improves their quality of life and/or long term survival. • The potential benefit of live donor transplantation needs to be weighed up against the likely outcome with the alternative options. For the...

However, this source of kidney grafts may help to overcome in part the organ donor shortage of cadaveric donors. The living donor strategy implies correct and objective information about donation risks and completely free acceptance of the living candidate of the donation. In this pap...
