The Natural History of Residual Renal Function in Transplant Donors [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2012
After uninephrectomy, GFR in the remaining kidney increases to 60%-70% of the predonation value, largely because of a substantial increase in renal blood flow. Donor kidney function is then generally maintained over many years. Hypertension and proteinuria are common among living donors but do not appear to negatively affect long-term renal function ...
