Kidney-Pancreas Transplant · Wisconsin

Data Insight

University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics's kidney-pancreas transplant program is one of 112 kidney-pancreas programs tracked by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) in the November 2025 Program-Specific Report cohort. The center is located in Wisconsin and reports under SRTR center code WIUW. These program-level statistics are risk-adjusted for recipient and donor characteristics, which means survival estimates account for factors such as age, diagnosis, and prior medical history rather than comparing raw outcomes.

For the current cohort, this program reports a 1-year graft survival rate of 95.2% and a 3-year rate of 93.8%, compared with a national risk-adjusted benchmark of 94.9% at 1 year. The program performed approximately 78 kidney-pancreas transplants during the reporting window. An estimated 23 candidates sit on this program's waiting list, though time-to-transplant depends heavily on OPTN allocation rules for kidney-pancreas, blood type, medical urgency, and geography.

Among the 112 kidney-pancreas transplant programs reporting to SRTR for this cohort, University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics ranks #69 by 1-year graft survival, placing the center 0.3 percentage points above the national benchmark. SRTR releases updated Program-Specific Reports approximately twice yearly (typically May and November), and each release incorporates a rolling cohort that may lag by 6-18 months because survival outcomes require follow-up.
