Introduction

Among patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and end-stage renal disease, simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is associated with increased survival compared with solitary kidney transplants or dialysis.

Methods

A retrospective, descriptive study was performed on 101 consecutive SPK transplantation performed in our center over the last 20 years. We excluded six pancreas alone, eight pancreas after kidney, and four retransplantations. We analyzed demographic characteristics and patient and graft survivals. We also compared patient and pancreatic graft survivals between three periods: 1989 to 1999, 2000 to 2003, and 2004 to 2007. In the first period, bladder drainage was performed in all patients. In the second and third periods, it was replaced by enteric drainage.

Results

Overall patient survival was 83.2 % . Kidney graft loss occurred in 12 (11.8 % ) patients and pancreas graft loss in 21 (20.7 % ) patients. Overall pancreatic graft survival was 79.2 % with a 1-year value of 87.1 % . By periods, pancreatic graft survival was 75 % during the bladder drainage era; 76.9 % in the second period; and 85.7 % in the third period (P = .88).

Conclusion

SPK transplantations in diabetic patients with end-stage renal disease were associated with improving pancreas graft survival throughout the study period.
