Abstract:
Objective To explore the use of marginal kidneys from DBD (donation after brain death) donors and the indication for adult dual kidney transplantation.Methods Two pairs of graft kidneys were procured from two marginal adult donors.Dual kidney transplants were performed in two recipients.In each recipient,two kidneys were implanted in unilateral site of right lower quadrant and placed extraperitoneally,two separate extravesical ureterneocysto-anastomoses were performed.Results Delayed graft function (DGF) combined with acute rejection occurred in two cases,and all two cases recovered after treatments.Lymphocele and hematoma occurred in one case.No graft embolism and no urinary leak happened.Conclusions Adult dual kidney transplant offers an important use of kidneys from marginal donors to increase the number of organs available for transplantation.
