“…The clinical characteristics that differentiate “marginal” renal allograft of such donors are derived from (a) the social and medical history of the donor (age, history of hypertension (HTN) or diabetes, and/or malignancy), (b) the mechanism of donor death (brain death vs. cardiac death), (c) the morphology on biopsy (glomerulosclerosis, interstitial nephritis and/or fibrosis), and (d) the functional profile.

Introduction: The end-stage renal disease (ESRD) population is increasing worldwide and organ shortage is an important issue. The disparity between the availability of organs and waitlisted patients for transplants has forced many transplant centers across the world to use marginal kidney donors. We assess and compare postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients who received a graft from marginal renal donor (MRD) versus those who received a graft from standard renal donor (SRD). Methods: A total of 214 patients with ESRD underwent open live donor renal allografting from September 2015 to September 2017. Out of 214 donors, 165 (77.1%) were SRD and 49 (22.9%) were MRD. Post-transplant eGFR was calculated at 2 months for donors and at days 1, 3, 5, and 7 and month 1, 3, 6, and 12 for recipients. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in eGFR of recipients at preoperative and postoperative period between SRD and MRD groups. Although at 12 months of follow–up eGFR was relatively high in SRD group, it did not show any statistically significant difference. The recipient survival rate at 1-year follow-up was 98.2% in SRD and 100% in MRD group. Conclusions: Renal transplant recipients using MRDs have a comparable glomerular filtration rate to SRDs at the end of 1 year. Short-term outcomes in recipients receiving marginal renal grafts were similar when compared to the allograft from standard donors.

Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). Since the first kidney transplant was performed between identical twins in 1954 1 , significant advances in the scientific and clinical aspects of transplantation have led to a consistent improvement in outcomes. Kidney transplantation therefore confers significant survival benefit to patients when compared to dialysis 2 . We explore some of the developments in kidney transplantation that have led to refinement in technique and improvement in outcomes over the years.
