In Brazil in december 1969 it was performed a Live donation kideny transplant between a sister to he brother.

He received a kideny from his sister 37 years ago. Average renal graft survival is 12 years. Oswaldo died 5 days ago of complications of diverticulitis,at 70 years of age. His donated kidney functioned extremely well for 37 years.
