ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Outcomes of kidney transplant (KT) after controlled cardiac death with older donors are under review. We aimed to analyze early and midterm clinical outcomes using older (≥70 years) controlled cardiac death donors (cDCD).METHODS:
Retrospective observational single-center study including all KTs from donors ≥70 years from cDCD and donors after brain death (DBD) performed from January 2017 to January 2022. We performed a comparative study between the 2 groups (cDCD and DBD). An analysis of clinical characteristics, early clinical outcomes, and patient and graft survival rates was made.RESULTS:
We included 25 cDCD KTs and 63 DBD KTs ≥70 years. The median follow-up was 18.7 months. Recipients from cDCD were more comorbid. Donors from DBD showed higher hypertension and stroke rate. The KTs from older cDCD showed similar delayed graft function rate (cDCD 34.6% vs DBD extended criteria donor 35.3%, P = .59) and primary nonfunction (cDCD 16% vs DBD 17.4%, P = .85) compared with older DBD. Medium (3 years) graft death-censored survival was satisfying (cDCD 73% vs DBD 72%) despite a relevant early graft failure rate in both groups (cDCD 16% vs DBD 23%, P = .26). No differences were observed in patient survival at year 1 (cDCD 94% vs DBD 93%, P = .62).CONCLUSIONS:
In our series, the outcomes with older cDCD are similar compared with older DBD. Although older donors showed an increase of early graft failure, these kidneys allowed us to maximize the opportunities for candidates that otherwise should remain on dialysis.
