The improvement of survival rates and the increasing demand for renal transplantation has resulted in tremendous growth of the deceased donor kidney waiting list. Unfortunately, over the same period, the number of deceased donor kidneys available for transplantation has only increased modestly. In this review, the rules by which deceased donor kidneys are allocated and distributed are reviewed. In addition, we discuss the ethical issues involved in the formulation of these policies and the implications for individual patients.
生存率的提高以及肾移植需求的不断增加，导致了 deceased donor kidney 等待名单的大幅增长。不幸的是，在同一时期，可用于移植的 deceased donor kidney 的数量仅略有增加。在本综述中，我们回顾了 deceased donor kidney 的分配规则。此外，我们还讨论了这些政策制定过程中涉及的伦理问题以及对个体患者的影响。
