Severe primary graft failure: Are there lasting impacts? Analysis from the PHTS Database by Jennifer Conway, MD, Tara Pidborochynski, MSc, James K. Kirklin, MD, Ryan Cantor, PhD, Hong Zhao, PhD, Aryaz Sheybani, MD, Jacqueline Lamour, MD, Lakshmi Gokanapudy Hahn, MD, Leslie Collins, MD, Jessica Laks, MD, Darren H. Freed, MD, PhD

“…PGF was an independent predictor of overall graft loss (hazard ratios [HR] 4.7, p < 0.0001) and conditional survival to 30 days (HR 2.47, p < 0.0001) and 90 days (HR 1.6, p = 0.012) but not beyond 1 year. Conclusions: Severe PGF is an independent predictor of early mortality post-HTx but subsequently does not further impact long-term survival, overall risk of rejection, or CAV. …”
