ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To retrospectively investigate the distribution in kidney transplantation for fifteen years in Peking Union Medical College Hospital.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We conducted a descriptive research counting up the number of patients who received kidney transplantation each year in our hospital during 1995 and 2010.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The first kidney transplantation in our hospital occurred in the 1960s. The number of kidney transplantation increased until reaching a maximum of 47 grafts in 2001; since then the number fell.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>With the decreased number of kidney transplantation, we have realized the shortage of transplantable organs is very serious. The continuing transplant shortage requires major efforts to expand the donor pool. Donation after cardiac death offers the potential to enlarge the donor pool, but we need to strictly control the criteria for potential donors.</p>
