Factors affecting graft function in cadaveric renal transplantation from non-heart-beating donors using a double balloon catheter.
Experiences in 145 cadaveric kidney transplantation from non-heart-beating donors showed that not only donor age and WIT but also recipient body weight and duration of hemodialysis dependency were the determining factors affecting posttransplant kidney function analyzed with the use of a stepwise logistic regression model. This suggests that the fluid burden on the graft provides an additional insult on the recovery of the grafts from ischemic injury.
