METHODS: This survival analysis study was performed on the results of the first 200 renal transplantations during 5 consecutive years. Data including age, sex, 1, 2 and 3 years graft and patient survival, kidney transplant recipients, nephrologic and urologic complications, and creatinine distribution at end of 1, 2 and 3 years after transplantation were gathered and evaluated.
FINDINGS: The mean age of patients was 39.34±15.1 years, and 116 (58%) of patients were male. 1, 2 and 3 year graft survival was 98.86%, 97.3% and 97.3%, respectively and 1, 2 and 3 year patient survival was 96.63%, 96.63% and 93.12%, respectively. Treatment of clinical acute rejection without pathological diagnosis was performed on 19 patients (9.5%) and 16 patients responded to treatment. Acute tubular necrosis and gradual decrease in creatinine was seen in 13%. The surgical complication was seen in 3.5%.of patients who respond to treatment.
