Surgical Complications Not Related to the Renal and Pancreatic Grafts After Simultaneous Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation

摘要

Background. Simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPKTx) is the most commonly performed multiorgan transplantation procedure worldwide. Transplanted organs are the main source of complication; however, some postoperative complications are not directly related to the pancreatic or renal grafts. The goal of this study was to evaluate the prevalence, type, and severity of postoperative complications not related to transplanted kidney or pancreas among SPKTx recipients.
