Due the shortage of organ donors and the increase in the waiting list of kidney transplant recipients (KTR), alternative strategies have been considered with the aim of increasing the number of organs available. The use of kidneys from donors with acute renal failure and elevated serum creatinine has been considered as a way to increase the number of donors. The objective of this work is to report the 3-year follow-up of three KTR patients of a deceased donor with serum creatinine greater than or equal to 5 mg/dL.
