Kidney transplantation is the ideal treatment for patients with end stage kidney disease. Deceased donor kidneys are a scarce and valuable resource that we have to use optimally in order to benefit the maximum number of patients possible. We will discuss the challenge of kidney discards, the evaluation of kidneys during the allocation process and the opportunities that exist to lower the discard rate.
