Acute renal graft failure or delayed graft function (DGF) is defined as a necessity at least one hemodialysis during first week after transplantation. Approximately 20% of patients require temporary dialysis after kidney transplantation. There are many different factors, donor, recipient and transplant-related, that can trigger DGF. In the article a pathophysiology, clinical picture, treatment and prevention of the disorder have been shortly summarized.
