Donor kidney pathology combined with clinical parameters helps expand the kidney donor pool: a large-scale retrospective cohort study

Key Points

To assess the safety and viability of single kidney transplantation from donors with varying Remuzzi scores.
Retrospective cohort study analyzing outcomes of single kidney transplants
Evaluation of grafts based on Remuzzi scores
Analysis of kidney donor profile index (KDPI) and donor terminal creatinine levels.
Single kidney transplantation is safe for grafts with Remuzzi scores ≤4.
High-score donor kidneys may still have favorable graft prognosis when allocated using specific clinical criteria.

Abstract

Single kidney transplantation is safe for grafts with Remuzzi scores ≤4. Even some kidneys from high-score donors demonstrated favorable graft prognosis when allocated based on KDPI and donor terminal creatinine.
