Background:

Early pancreas graft failure impacts simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant (SPKT) recipients, occurring in up to 20% of cases.
Pancreas retransplantation outcomes have progressively improved, now rivaling primary pancreas transplant success rates.

Observation:

This report details a rare instance of a third pancreas transplant.
The arterial anastomosis was uniquely performed using a remnant of a prior arterial Y-graft.

Findings:

The third pancreas transplant was technically successful.
The decision to proceed with a third transplant was supported by careful consideration of multiple factors.

Implications:

This case demonstrates the feasibility and potential success of complex pancreas retransplantation.
It underscores the importance of innovative surgical techniques and careful patient selection in managing graft failure.
