Survival of Patients Older Than 60 Years With Kidneys Transplanted From Spanish Expanded Criteria Donors Versus Patients Continued on Hemodialysis
Transplantation Proceedings, 09/03/09
Navarro JM et al. – Kidney transplantation with an expanded criteria donor organ in elderly patients was a procedure that provided greater survival than HD for patients excluded from transplantation, for patients on the WL who did not receive a transplant, and for patients excluded solely due to advanced age who showed comorbidity comparable to the transplant recipients. According to our data, elderly patients with low comorbidity should be considered for inclusion on the WL for transplantation.
