Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUNDPrevious studies demonstrate that graft survival from older living kidney donors (LD; age >60 years) is worse than younger LD but similar to deceased standard criteria donors (SCD). Limited sample size has precluded more detailed analyses of transplants from older LD. METHODSUsing the United Network for Organ Sharing database from 1994 to 2012, recipients were categorized by donor statusSCD, expanded criteria donor (ECD), or LD (by donor age
