Long-term function of kidney allografts depends on multiple variables, one of which may be the compatibility in size between the graft and the recipient. Here, we assessed the long-term consequences of the ratio of the weight of the kidney to the weight of the recipient (KwRw ratio) in a multicenter cohort of 1189 patients who received a transplant between 1995 and 2006. The graft filtration rate increased by a mean of 5.74 ml/min between the third and sixth posttransplantation months among patients with a low KwRw ratio (,2.3 g/kg; P, 0.0001). In this low KwRw ratio group, the graft filtration rate remained stable between 6 months and 7 years but then decreased at a mean rate of 3.17 ml/min per yr (P, 0.0001). In addition, low KwRw ratios ...
