Abstract

Horvat and coauthors report on trends in living kidney transplantation in 69 countries, having assembled the data from registries, national societies, the medical literature, and direct contact with transplant centers. Assembling worldwide data on live-donor kidney transplants is a commendable accomplishment that serves the international transplant community well.
