Outcomes of kidney transplant tourism and risk factors for de novo urothelial carcinoma.

abstract：:In a randomized trial conducted in 9 Ontario transplant centers, 107 cadaver kidney donors were randomized so that both kidneys were preserved either by simple cold storage (CS) or by pulsatile perfusion (PP). After exclusions and losses to follow-up, there were 90 patients in the CS group and 91 in the PP group. Tota...
