We assess the long-term graft/ patient survival outcomes in donation after cardiac death ( DCD) and donation after brain death (DBD) transplants from kidneys procured from donors > 50 years of age. METHODS Utilizing the UNOS/OPTN database, we analyzed 14288 deceased donor kidney transplants (1833 DCD and 13533 DBD) from donors > 50 years between 2005-2013. Analysis of graft and patient survival was with multivariate regression analysis and Cox models with single imputation by dummy variable method to manage missing data. RESULTS Donor and recipient demographics between DCD and DBD recipients were similar including donor age, BMI, history of diabetes, and smoking. However, KDRI Rao was 1.5 (1.06-3.31) in DCD and 1.6 in DBD (1.6 (0.96-4.1), which was significant (p<0.001). Death censored graft survival in patients receiving grafts from donors >50 years at 1 and 5 years was 90 and 76% in DCD group vs 92% and 77% in DBD (p = NS). Furthermore, patient survival was 90 and 70% in DCD vs. 91 and 72% in DBD ( p = NS). When analyzing patients receiving grafts >60 years of age, graft survival was similar between DCD and DBD groups, but patient survival was inferior in the DCD group (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Results of renal transplantation with grafts >50 years are similar between DCD and DBD recipients, but caution should be taken when utilizing grafts >60 years. © 2017FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 197Issue 4SApril 2017Page: e394-e395 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2017MetricsAuthor Information Patrick Luke More articles by this author Hemant Sharma More articles by this author Jingwen Chen More articles by this author Alp Sener More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
