Abstract:
The objective of this study was to compare the surgical complications of live and deceased donor kidney transplantations. All the renal transplants done at our institute from January 2013 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Although the complication rate was marginally higher in the cadaver group, the difference was found to be statistically insignificant. It can be inferred that cadaver kidney transplant is as safe as live kidney transplantation.
