Pancreas and Islet Transplantation: Comparative Outcome Analysis of a Single-centre Cohort Over 20-years

Abstract

PTx shows higher sex-adjusted and age-adjusted mortality, procedure-related complications and readmissions compared with ITx. Conversely, insulin independence, graft survival and glycemic control are better with PTx. This study provides data to balance risks and benefits with ITx and PTx, which could improve shared decision-making.
