“…In general, the use of donors not fulfilling ideal criteria was considered acceptable provided that the accumulation of additional risk factors and long ischemic times was avoided. In detail, in the setting of donation after brainstem death (DBD), experts did not recommend against the use of donors aged >40 years, 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 pediatric donors, 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 , 113 and donors with a BMI > 30 kg/m 2 . 114 , 115 , 116 In the discussion, experts underscored that the use of pediatric donors of low body weight (<15 kg) may increase the risk of technical failure, while a BMI < 35 kg/m 2 reduces the impact of obesity.…”

“…Since that time, there have been reports on pancreatic transplantation from pediatric donors from several institutions [2,3,4,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22], and the results were comparable to those of adult donors. The youngest reported case (reported by Sageshima et al [3]) involved a pediatric donor of 14 months of age; while the lowest donor body weight (reported by Nghiem et al [6]) was 8.2 kg.…”

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of pancreatic transplantation from pediatric donors younger than 15 years of age to the outcomes of pancreatic transplantation from adult donors. Methods: Sixty patients underwent pancreatic transplantation in our facility from August 2012 to June 2019. These patients were divided into two groups according to the age of the donor: Cases in which the donor was younger than 15 years of age were classified into the PD group (n = 7), while those in which the donor was older than 15 years of age were classified into the AD group (n = 53). The outcomes of pancreas transplantation were retrospectively compared between the two groups. Results: Pancreatic graft survival did not differ between the PD and AD groups. Furthermore, there were no differences in the HbA1c and serum creatinine levels at three months, with good values maintained in both groups. The results of oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) revealed that the blood glucose concentration did not differ between the two groups. However, the serum insulin concentration at 30 min after 75 g glucose loading was significantly higher in the PD group. Conclusion: The outcomes of pancreatic transplantation from pediatric donors may be comparable to those of pancreatic transplantation from adult donors and the insulin secretion ability after transplantation may be better.
