As a result of the increasing number of transplants being facilitated by kidney paired donation and newer initiatives such as voucher donation, end-chain (EC) kidneys now constitute a considerable proportion of kidney paired donation transplants in the United States. Data on EC kidneys are limited. They may be lower in quality compared with non–EC living donor kidneys. However, they can provide unique opportunities for recipient candidates without living donors. There are no data or algorithms available to guide recipient selection for EC kidneys accepted by a transplant center. Considering the ethical principles of utility, justice, and respect for persons that underlie organ allocation, we discuss 3 potential approaches for recipient selection: (1) adherence to the kidney allocation system, (2) utility maximization; and (3) priority to high-risk candidates, along with examples from our own center’s experience. Similar considerations are also relevant to selection of recipients for nondirected donor organs and to out-of-sequence allocation for deceased organ donors. Because EC kidneys represent an increasing proportion of kidney paired donation–facilitated living kidney donor transplantation in the United States and will likely get more medically and surgically complex over time, ongoing research on their utilization and outcomes is needed.

应对末端链肾受体选择的挑战
由于肾脏配对捐献和代金券捐赠等新举措促进了越来越多的移植,末端链 (EC) 肾脏现在在美国肾脏配对捐献移植中占了相当大的比例。关于 EC 肾脏的数据有限。与非 EC 活体供体肾脏相比,它们的质量可能较低。但是,他们可以为没有活体供体的受赠候选人提供独特的机会。没有数据或算法可用于指导移植中心接受的 EC 肾脏的受者选择。考虑到作为器官分配基础的效用、正义和尊重人的道德原则,我们讨论了受体选择的 3 种潜在方法:(1) 遵守肾脏分配系统,(2) 效用最大化;(3) 优先考虑高风险候选人,以及我们自己中心的经验示例。类似的考虑也与非定向供体器官的受者选择和已故器官供体的无序分配有关。由于 EC 肾脏在美国肾脏配对供体移植中所占的比例越来越大,并且随着时间的推移,医学和手术可能会变得更加复杂,因此需要对其利用和结果进行持续研究。
