ABSTRACT
Pancreas transplantation has now become an established option in the treatment of diabetic complications. It normalizes glucose metabolism, prevents, stabilizes and improves the evolution of diabetes-associated lesions. Improvements in surgical procedure and in immunosuppression have better defined its indications. Combined kidney-pancreas transplantation appears today as the best treatment for the diabetic patient with end stage renal disease. Isolated pancreas transplantation is reserved to non-uremic patients with severe diabetic complications or with hyperlabile glycaemic control and severe impairment of quality of life.
