Item Justifying a Third Pancreas Transplant: a Case Report(Başkent Üniversitesi, 2008-03) Wales, Lucy; Hakim, Nadey S.; Mustafa, Nazar; Dosani, Tariq; Canelo, RubenEarly pancreas graft failure after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant can occur in up to 20% of recipients. Results after pancreas retransplant continue to improve, with results comparable to primary pancreas transplants. We describe an unusual case of a third pancreas transplant in which a remnant of a previous arterial Y-graft was used for the arterial anastomosis, and we discuss the factors used to justify the decision to do a third pancreas transplant.
