  • Title: Primary cadaveric renal transplantation using cyclosporine in patients over fifty years of age.
    Author: Mandelbaum DM, Henry ML, Sommer BG, Ferguson RM.
    Journal: Transplant Proc; 1987 Feb; 19(1 Pt 3):1863-4. PubMed ID: 3274443.
    Abstract:
    Patient and allograft survival for the older transplant recipient (greater than 50 years of age) is comparable to that of their younger counterparts. These patients require less aggressive immunosuppression and tolerate over immunosuppression poorly. The older uremic patient should not be excluded from renal transplantation.
