Abstract
BACKGROUND: In Mexico, out of the total number of transplants it was reported, in 2014, a frequency of 29% of deceased donor renal transplantation (DDRT). The use of kidneys from deceased elderly donors is increasing over the years. Currently, some authors consider that six months after the transplant, patients who have been transplanted from deceased donors have a longer survival than those who are still undergoing dialysis replacement therapy.
