“…DWF was demonstrated to be a major cause of graft loss in many series [4, 8, 9]and became the predominant cause of graft loss in the 1990s [11, 12]. In our series, there was an overall continued improvement in graft survival over the years with a similar trend in the DWF patient.…”

“…Many other published studies in the literature, consisting mainly of earlier series, have reported infection as the leading cause of death in a mix of transplant recipients with and without graft function [7, 10, 17]. Cardiovascular death is the most frequent cause in transplant patients in most published series [4, 5]. The increased cardiovascular mortality probably reflects an acceptance of older and sicker population of patients in the transplantation program in recent years.…”

“…However, approximately 30% of Tx recipients will lose their graft before their fifth transplant anniversary. Despite evidence that retransplantation carries improved patient survival rates compared to dialysis, failed kidney Tx patients add to the growing dialysis population (22,23). Medical practitioners providing care for these patients should recognize the increased risk of adverse outcomes in this patient population.…”
