| pubmed-article:9931947 | pubmed:abstractText | This article reviews our experience with renal regrafting in the past 16 years with particular emphasis on long-term outcome and prognostic parameters. Among 1094 renal transplants there were 15.8% regrafts, and the proportion of patients awaiting a regraft procedure on our current waiting list is 33%. Graft and patient survival was similar for first and second transplants, but was significantly reduced when a third graft was performed. The main prognostic parameters were the time of function of the previous graft, mismatch for HLA-DR and the presence of panel-reactive antibodies. | lld:pubmed |
