Sažetak
Aim: Kidney transplantation is the method of choice for treatment of patients with end-stage renal disease. Because of disparity between donors and recipients, the use of marginal donors was established to increase the number of donors. Dual kidney transplantation
represents using two kidneys from the same donor for one recipient. In this case report we present the first case of bilateral dual kidney transplantation in KBC Rijeka and Croatia. Case report: The recipient was a 75-year-old man who was on hemodialysis for 15 years. The cause of end-stage renal disease was chronic glomerulonephritis. The donor of kidneys was a 78-year-old woman with cerebral death caused by intracranial bleeding. The kidneys were transplanted bilaterally and placed extraperitoneally in the iliac fossa. Postoperative
course was uneventful, without surgical and immunological complications. Triple immunosuppressive
therapy was used. One year after transplantation both kidneys have good function. Discussion and conclusion: As survival of patients with dual kidney transplantation is better than on haemodialysis, we believe that using kidneys from expanded criteria donors
can possibly increase the number of kidney transplantations.
