[Use of a previously transplanted kidney for second transplantation].
The constant shortage of renal transplants has led to the selection of unusual donors. We report a case of renal transplantation using a renal transplant that had already been transplanted 29 months previously. To our knowledge, this constitutes the first case of retransplantation of the same organ after long-term implantation in a first recipient.
