Seventy-two kidneys have been transplanted-47 from related donors, and 25 from cadaver donors-into 63 recipients. No donor died or experienced a complication requiring more than one extra week of hospitalization. Six recipients died. Three of the six recipients died from complications. Two of the six died only because they declined to resume hemodialysis, and one died in prison of unusual circumstances after seven and one-half years of good health and kidney function. Five patients are surviving by virtue of a second transplant. Eight patients are now on hemodialysis. Seven patients with transplants are not in excellent physical health and five other patients with excellent health and renal function are nonetheless frequently depressed and easily upset over minor physical disabilities. A majority of the recipients have been rehabilitated to a gratifying extent. |
