Expanding the donor pool in kidney transplantation: Should organs with acute kidney injury be accepted?-A retrospective study.

In our cohort, both short-term and long-term renal function was inferior in recipients of AKI kidneys, while patient survival was similar. Our data indicates that recipients of donor AKI kidneys should be carefully selected and additional factors impairing short- and long-term outcome should be minimized to prevent further deterioration of graft function.
