DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2019.03.016
Abstract: BACKGROUND Body mass index of living kidney donors has increased substantially. Determining candidacy for live kidney donation among obese individuals is challenging because many donation-related risks among this subgroup remain unquantified, including even basic postdonation… read more here.
