Background.Kidney transplants using older donors are becoming increasingly accepted as a strategy for alleviating the growing donor organ shortage. Most studies to date have shown decreased graft survival associated with the use of older cadaver donors; however, studies on the effect of living donor age on graft survival are less clear-cut.Methods.We studied the effect of donor age on patient and graft survival after 1126 consecutive cyclosporine-treated primary kidney transplants performed between January 1, 1985 and December 31, 1995. Of these grafts, 598 were from living donors (74 from donors> 55 years old) and 528 from cadaver donors (54 from donors> 55 years). We calculated actuarial patient survival, graft survival, and death-censored graft survival for recipients of both living donor and cadaver kidneys. Living donors were then further divided by HLA mismatch (0 vs. 1-6) and the presence or absence of an acute rejection episode. Multivariate analysis of factors associated with decreased graft survival was performed for recipients of both living and cadaver donor kidneys. Factors included for analysis were donor age> 55 years, recipient age> 50 years, the presence of diabetes mellitus, HLA mismatch (0 vs. 1-6), and the presence of an acute rejection episode.Results.For cadaver kidneys, univariate analysis indicates that both overall (P= 0.004) and death-censored (P= 0.001) graft survival was significantly better with younger cadaver kidneys. This is supported by our multivariate analysis, which shows that cadaver donor age> 55 years is an independent predictor of poor actuarial graft survival (P= 0.0003).
