Predictors of graft function and survival in second kidney transplantation: A single center experience.

Background: The increasing kidney retransplantation rate has created a parallel field of research, including the risk factors and outcomes of this advanced form of renal replacement therapy. The presentation of experiences from different kidney transplantation centers may help enrich the literature on kidney retransplantation, as a specific topic in the field of kidney transplantation.

Aim: To identify the risk factors affecting primary graft function and graft survival rates after second kidney transplantation (SKT).
