Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Versus Liver Transplantation Alone in Patients with End-Stage Liver Disease and Kidney Dysfunction Not on Dialysis

Among those with ESLD and kidney dysfunction not on dialysis, post-liver transplant patient and liver graft survivals of patients who underwent SLKT were superior to those of patients who underwent LTA. Whether this reflects differences in the two groups that could not be adjusted in survival models or a specific effect of kidney dysfunction cannot be established.
