Simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation: Current trends and challenges

Figure 1 Patient death at 10 years among adult pancreas transplant recipients. Outcomes are computed using unadjusted Kaplan-Meier methods. Transplant recipients are followed from date of transplant to the earlier of death or 10 years posttransplant. Only first pancreas transplant is considered. PAK recipients without a record of previous kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant are reclassified as PTA. All time points are 2-year periods. PAK: Pancreas after kidney; PTA: Pancreas transplant alone; SPK: Simultaneous pancreas-kidney. Source: Figure PA70, OPTN/SRTR 2023 Annual Data Report. HHS/HRSA; 2025.
