Abstract
Kidney transplantation is currently the most favorable treatment for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD).1,2 Although transplantation from living donors (LD) promises higher survival rate, transplantation from deceased donors (DD) accounts for more than half of all kidney transplantation in the United States.5 Minimizing the ischemic damage on donor kidneys is essential for successful DD kidney transplantation because manifestations of the reperfusion injury after transplantation depend on the extent of ischemic insult.6 In this study, we investigate the correlation between the extent of ischemia and the renal microvasculature damage in an animal model of kidney ischemia and reperfusion injury using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA).
