Abstract
- The feasibility and effectiveness of kidney paired donation (KPD) for the management of patients with incompatible donors were determined. Evidence suggests that recipients with incompatible live donors, even those with rare blood type combinations, can receive transplants through KPD with graft survival rates equivalent to directed, compatible liver donor transplants.
