Extended Criteria Donors in Living Kidney Transplantation Including Donor Age, Smoking, Hypertension and BMI.

Purpose: An expansion of selection criteria for deceased organ transplantation already exists to manage the current donor shortage. Comparable evaluation of risk factors for living donors should be investigated to improve this issue.

Patients And Methods: Our retrospective single-centre study analysed 158 patients with living kidney transplants performed between February 2006 and June 2012.
