Funded Activity Summary

Living kidney donation remains a complex ethical issue. The expectation is that the risks to the donor are outweighed by the benefits to the donor and recipient. The long-term risks to the donor are however uncertain. This is an international prospective cohort study of 310 donors and 310 non-donors, including the recruitment of 85 donors and 85 non-donors in Australia. We will determine the long term risks on a kidney donor of a series of physical and psychological health outcomes.
