Abstract

Kidney transplantation has become a victim of its own success. Despite measures to increase the number of donors, success to date has been limited. At the Western Infirmary, we used an organ that had been transplanted earlier. The patient who received that organ has since been followed up for more than 2 years, and no issues have arisen regarding functioning of the graft. Although it does not increase the donor pool, we believe that domino kidney transplantation ought to be considered when the situation merits it.
