  • Title: [Kidney transplantation from living donors].
    Author: Vogelbach P, Schütz A, Binet I, Gürke L, Gasser T, Bock A, Thiel G, Harder F.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir Suppl Kongressbd; 1997; 114():1032-4. PubMed ID: 9574323.
    Abstract:
    Because of the severe shortage of cadaver organs, the transplantation of living donated organs from related and also from unrelated donors has been suggested; graft survival is similar or better than with cadaver kidneys. Therefore, kidneys from living donors are a large and valuable source for transplantation which help increase the pool of organs and thus decrease the time spent waiting for organ transplantation.
