Abstract
BACKGROUND: Delayed graft function is a clinical term to describe the failure of the transplanted kidney to function immediately after transplantation.
CASE REPORT: A 59-year-old woman suffered from a rare case of delayed graft function lasting 148 days after unrelated living donor kidney transplantation. Until now, 15 years after transplantation, organ function is still good, with serum creatinine levels about 1.4 to 2.0 mg/dl.
CONCLUSIONS: Even after prolonged graft dysfunction, good graft function can be achieved.
