Abstract

Purpose: The aims of this study are to compare the results of renal retransplantation and the first renal transplantation in our center, and to analyze the risk factor affecting second graft survival rate.
Methods: We analyzed 37 cases of second or third renal transplantations performed in our center from 1981 to 2005, retrospectively. We compared the second graft survival rate with the first graft survival rate. And risk factors affecting long-term second graft survival were also analyzed.
Results: 37 cases of retransplantation out of 277 cases of first graft loss were performed in our center (5%). Second graft survival rates (1, 5, 10 year) were 83.7, 66.5, 49.9%, while first graft survival rates were 90.0, 74.8, 59.1%, repectively. Risk factors which shows significance were high HLA-AB matching, living donor and absence of DGF.
Conclusion: The graft survival rates of second renal transplantation were similar to that of first renal transplantantation.
