Abstract:
We report our experience of 202 cadaveric renal transplant performed over a 9 year period. Actuarial patient survival rate was 87.5% at 1 year and 81% at 9 years; graft survival rate was 58.5% at 1 year and 43% at 9 years. In order to improve patient and graft survival, from September 1977 renal transplantation was performed only in patients with a previous careful clinical selection and who had received at least three blood transfusions. Out of 18 patient, actuarial patient and graft survival rate at 1 year were 100% and 76% respectively.
