The present study is a report of long-term results of the first 1200 operations from December 1988 to December 2003. Graft and patient survival rates in eligible cases were computed with Kaplan-Meier analysis. Recipients were 808 men, 392 women of mean age 33.6 +/- 12.5 years. Eighty six percent of cases used organs from living donors (40% related, 41% unrelated, and 5% spouses) and 14% from cadaveric source. The most common causes of end-stage renal disease were chronic glomerulonephritis (18.2%); reflux nephropathy (13.4%); and diabetic nephropathy (10.1%). Among 215 (17.9%) patients, 156 patients (13%) died in the posttransplant period. Most common causes of death were cardiovascular (28.3%), graft loss (20.7%), and infections (19.6%). The 1- and 3-year patient survival rates were 94% and 91.5%, and graft survival rates were 88% and 84%. Although the success rate of operations was not satisfactory at the beginning, the current data reflect a >90% survival rate comparable to the major centers in the world.
