Factors Predicting Kidney Delayed Graft Function Among Recipients of Simultaneous Liver‐Kidney Transplantation: Single Center Experience

Background: Kidney delayed graft function (kDGF) remains a challenging problem following simultaneous liver and kidney transplantation (SLKT) with a reported incidence up to 40%. Given the scarcity of renal allografts, it is crucial to minimize the development of kDGF among SLKT recipients to improve patient and graft outcomes. We sought to assess the role of preoperative recipient and donor/graft factors on developing kDGF among recipients of SLKT.
