Le processus d’attribution rénale québécois défavorise-t-il les patients en attente d’une greffe combinée rein-pancréas?

In organ transplantation, there is a significant gap between the number of organs available and the number of patients waiting.

In this case study, we will illustrate the difficulties associated with the implementation of an allocation system. The aim is to ensure a fair distribution of kidney transplants while also taking into account the principle of utility, and this for all patients, including those waiting for a combined kidney-pancreas transplant
