DOI: 10.1097/tp.0000000000001744
Abstract: Background The waiting list for kidney transplantation is long. The creation of “vouchers” for future kidney transplants enables living donation to occur when optimal for the donor and transplantation to occur later, when and if… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/txd.0000000000000668
Abstract: Background Clinicians may be reluctant to transplant small pediatric kidneys that have prolonged cold ischemia time (CIT) for fear of an additional deleterious effect because pediatric grafts are thought to be more sensitive to ischemia.… read more here.
