Abstract
Our data reveal a high incidence of voiding dysfunction in older male renal transplant recipients. High residual urine and urinary retention after renal transplantation may induce recurrent urinary tract infections, cause relevant complications, and seriously affect graft function. Recognizing the substantial effects of postoperative voiding dysfunction will enable optimum management of older kidney transplant recipients.
