Prediction of Renal Function After Living Donor Kidney Transplantation

There is no reliable method to predict the ideal expected function after a kidney transplantation. Herein we have described our experience in the living donor kidney transplant setting, comparing donor and recipient renal function (body surface area adjusted) before the LDKT, and during six months after this procedure. We determined the expected relation between donor and recipient renal function as well as its evolution over time.
