Gender Imbalance and Outcomes in Living Donor Renal Transplantation in The United States

In living donor kidney transplantation there are disproportionately more female‐to‐male donations and fewer male‐to‐female donations. Given the rapid increase in living donor transplantation, we studied gender demographics and outcomes of these transplants.
