Quality of life and emotional responses in cadaver and living related renal transplant recipients

Abstract

Our results indicate that different forms of transplantation (LRD vs CAD) may lead to different emotional responses albeit with no apparent quality of life differences. In particular, feelings of guilt appear to be prominent in LRD transplantation.
