Long‐Term Consequences of Live Kidney Donation Follow‐Up in 93% of Living Kidney Donors in a Single Transplant Center

Live kidney donation is increasing rapidly. Increases of blood pressure and proteinuria but no accelerated loss of renal function in kidney donors have been described. The credibility of this research is hampered by retrieval rates of only 50–70% of donors.
