| Core Tip |
Living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) offers favorable early graft outcomes and improved donor safety through advances in selection, immunologic matching, and perioperative care. Donor kidney laterality, right vs left, remains a key technical consideration, with right-sided nephrectomy linked to higher early complication rates but comparable long-term outcomes. Rather than using laterality as an isolated quality indicator, this editorial calls for its assessment within a broader surgical and clinical context, integrating anatomical complexity, procedural planning, and center-specific expertise to support informed, case-specific decision-making in LDKT. |
