DOI: 10.1097/01.tp.0000543759.80993.41
Abstract: Outcome after pancreas transplantation has been progressively improving and 1-year graft survival is currently reported to be over 80%. However, Technical failure such as thrombosis and enteric leak is still problematic issue and late pancreas… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/tp.0000000000004088
Abstract: BACKGROUND Pancreas graft status in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant (SPKTx) is currently assessed by nonspecific biochemical markers, typically amylase or lipase. Identifying a noninvasive biomarker with good sensitivity in detecting early pancreas graft rejection could improve… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/txd.0000000000000919
Abstract: Background. Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplant is usually the best option for the diabetic end-stage renal disease patient. There is limited information about kidney graft outcomes in SPK recipients with isolated pancreas graft failure who do… read more here.

Pancreas Donor Risk Index but Not Pre-Procurement Pancreas Allocation Suitability Score Predicts Pancreas Graft Survival: A Cohort Study from a Large German Pancreas Transplantation Center
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Annals of Transplantation"
DOI: 10.12659/aot.910014
Abstract: Background The pre-procurement pancreas allocation suitability score (P-PASS) was introduced to support clinical decision-making and ultimately expand the currently insufficient pancreas donor pool. The pancreas donor risk index (PDRI) can be used at the time… read more here.

DOI: 10.21037/gs-22-414
Abstract: Background Biopsy of a transplanted pancreas is sometimes necessary in patients who have undergone simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation and have elevated serum lipase and amylase concentrations. However, the risks associated with pancreatic graft biopsy are… read more here.
