The mean length of right kidney (female) was 10.05 cm, selleck 9.63 cm, 9.63 cm by peroperative, USG & CT IVU measurement respectively. Mean of split GFR, (DTPA) of right kidney in male was 44.99 ml/min & in female it was 41.62 ml/min. Mean of total DTPA GFR in right kidney in male was 91.02 ml/min & in female was 89.12 ml/min. The mean length of left kidney in (male) was 10.68 cm, 10.08 cm, 10.35 cm by peroperative USG & CT IVU measurement respectively. Mean length of left kidney (female) was 10.40 cm, 9.72 &9.94 cm by peroperative USG & CT IVU measurement respectively. Mean of split
GFR (DTPA) left kidney in male was 46.36 ml/min & in female it was 43.57 ml/min. Mean of total DTPA GFR of left kidney in male was 96.12 ml/min and in female was 88.40 ml/min. Peroperative measured lengths of kidneys correlated with measurement by USG, CT IVU body weight, body surface area, split GFR (P = 0.015), eGFR (P = 0.43) and with DTPA total GFR (p = 0.019). Conclusion: This study shows that per operatively measured Rucaparib mouse kidney length correlates mostly with the USG measured lengths.

We investigated the effects of donor source on renal allograft and patient survival in deceased donor transplants.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 190 cadaver kidney transplants that were performed in our center from January 2000 to December 2009. Of these, 136 kidneys were harvested in our transplantation center and 54 were from external donors. Primary outcome of graft survival was assessed with the Kaplan-Meier method and the significance of possible variables was determined with the Cox proportional hazard model. Results: There was no significant difference between groups in the age of donor and recipient, recipient body mass index, duration of dialysis, and panel reactive antibody >30%. Twenty recipients lost their grafts (14 from external donors and 6 from internal donors). Graft survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was 99.2%, 97.3%, and 95.5% for in-center donors and 98.1%, 88.9%, and 86.2% for external donor transplants (P = 0.01). There was no difference in patient survival rates between the groups. Acute rejection episodes (hazard ratio [HR] = 13.2; P < 0.001) and external hospital donor (HR = 9.3; P = 0.008) were independent factors associated with failure. Higher age of recipient was associated with increased patient death rate (HR = 1.2; P = 0.02).
