Abstract
|
|
|
Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is a well-established treatment for patients with insulin-dependent DM complicated by ESRD. The current shortage of cadaver donors and the increasing number of diabetic patients on the transplant waiting list has prompted the use of cadaveric organ from pediatric donors. But the lower age limit of the pancreatic donors has not yet been established. We report the successful result using a 10 years old donor for a 36-year-old SPK transplant recipient.
