The Role of Pre-Procurement Pancreas Suitability Score (P-PASS) and Pancreas Donor Risk Index (PDRI) in the Outcome of Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney or Pancreas After Kidney Transplantation.

CONCLUSIONS This study showed that P-PASS and pDRI were not reliable predictors of outcome after pancreas transplantation and that specific characteristics of the donor and recipient must be evaluated when predicting the outcome of pancreas transplantation.
