Graft and patient survival after kidney transplantation in the United States
Shown are Kaplan-Meier estimates of patient survival (panels A and B) and graft survival (panels C and D) after
transplantation of grafts from living donors (panels A and C) and deceased donors (panels B and D), with the data
grouped in 4-year cohorts from 1996 to 2015. There were gradual improvements in patient and graft survival from the 1996 to 1999 period to the 2012 to 2015 period.
