Recipients of live related and first cadaveric renal allografts were retrospectively reviewed before and after institution of a standardized regimen incorporating greater immunosuppression, (by the addition of antilymphocyte preparations). The two review groups were comparable with 11 live related and 27 first cadaver grafts in each. Despite a small advantage in terms of graft survival and diminished rejection, this was at the expense of septic morbidity. The implications of this are discussed.
