In the first eleven months of the National Organ Matching and Distribution Service 455 kidney transplants were notified. A high proportion of first transplants failed within seven days of operation, probably reflecting low quality of some of the donor kidneys supplied. To improve the results of renal transplantation and to serve the increasing number of potential recipients registered with the service, as well as to obtain the optimum blood and tissue group compatibility of donor and recipient, many more kidneys are needed.
在国家器官匹配与分配服务的前11个月里,共通报了455例肾移植手术。相当一部分首次移植手术在术后7天内失败,这可能反映出所提供的一些供体肾脏质量较低。为了提高肾移植的效果,服务越来越多登记在册的潜在受者,以及实现供体和受体血液及组织类型的最佳匹配,需要更多的肾脏。
