OPTN/SRTR 2021 Annual Data Report: Pancreas.
American Journal of Transplantation 2023 Februrary
The number of pancreas transplants in the United States was largely unchanged in 2021 at 963 transplants compared with 962 in 2020, showing that recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic was not as pronounced in pancreas transplantation as in other organs. The number of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplants (SPKs) decreased from 827 to 820, whereas the number of pancreas-after-kidney transplants and pancreas transplants alone increased marginally to compensate. The proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes on the waiting list increased to 22.9% in 2021, compared with 20.1% in 2020. Consequently, the proportion of transplants in patients with type 2 diabetes increased from 21.3% in 2020 to 25.9% in 2021. The proportion of transplants in older recipients (aged 55 years or older) also increased to 13.5% in 2021 from 11.7% in 2020. Outcomes after SPK continue to be the best of the three categories of pancreas transplants: 1-year graft failure for kidney at 5.7% and pancreas at 10.5% for transplants performed in 2020. The proportion of pancreas transplants performed by medium-volume centers (11-24 transplants per year) increased sharply to 48.3% in 2021 from 35.1% in 2020, with a corresponding decrease in transplants in large-volume centers (25 or more transplants per year) to 15.9% in 2021 from 25.7% in 2020.
