Résumé
Early kidney transplantation (KT) is the best option for patients with end-stage kidney disease, but little is known about dialysis access strategy in this context. We studied practice patterns of dialysis access and how they relate with outcomes in adults wait-listed early for KT according to the intended donor source. This study from the REIN registry (2002-2014) included 9331 incident dialysis patients (age 18-69) wait-listed for KT before or by 6 months after starting dialysis: 8342 candidates for deceased-donor KT and 989 for living-donor KT. Subdistribution hazard ratios (SHR) of KT and death associated with hemodialysis by catheter or peritoneal dialysis compared with arteriovenous (AV) access were estimated with Fine and Gray models. Living-donor candidates used pretransplant peritoneal dialysis at rates similar to deceased-donor KT candidates, but had significantly more frequent catheter than AV access for hemodialysis (adjusted OR 1.25; 95%CI 1.09-1.43). Over a median follow-up of 43 (IQR: 23-67) months, 6063 patients received transplants and 305 died before KT. Median duration of pretransplant dialysis was 15 (7-27) months for deceased-donor recipients and 9 (5-15) for living-donor recipients. Catheter use in deceased-donor candidates was associated with a lower SHR for KT (0.88, 95%CI 0.82-0.94) and a higher SHR for death (1.53, 95%CI 1.14-2.04). Only five deaths occurred in living-donor candidates, three of them with catheter use. Pretransplant dialysis duration may be quite long even when planned with a living donor. Advantages from protecting these patients from AV fistula creation must be carefully evaluated against catheter-related risks.

BACKGROUND
Early kidney transplantation (KT) is the best option for patients with end-stage kidney disease, but little is known about dialysis access strategy in this context. We studied practice patterns of dialysis access and how they relate with outcomes in adults wait-listed early for KT according to the intended donor source.
METHODS
This study from the REIN registry (2002-2014) included 9331 incident dialysis patients (age 18-69) wait-listed for KT before or by 6 months after starting dialysis: 8342 candidates for deceased-donor KT and 989 for living-donor KT. Subdistribution hazard ratios (SHR) of KT and death associated with hemodialysis by catheter or peritoneal dialysis compared with arteriovenous (AV) access were estimated with Fine and Gray models.
RESULTS
Living-donor candidates used pretransplant peritoneal dialysis at rates similar to deceased-donor KT candidates, but had significantly more frequent catheter than AV access for hemodialysis (adjusted OR 1.25; 95%CI 1.09-1.43). Over a median follow-up of 43 (IQR: 23-67) months, 6063 patients received transplants and 305 died before KT. Median duration of pretransplant dialysis was 15 (7-27) months for deceased-donor recipients and 9 (5-15) for living-donor recipients. Catheter use in deceased-donor candidates was associated with a lower SHR for KT (0.88, 95%CI 0.82-0.94) and a higher SHR for death (1.53, 95%CI 1.14-2.04). Only five deaths occurred in living-donor candidates, three of them with catheter use.
CONCLUSIONS
Pretransplant dialysis duration may be quite long even when planned with a living donor. Advantages from protecting these patients from AV fistula creation must be carefully evaluated against catheter-related risks.
