Complications (%)	9/62 (15%)

DBD Donation after brain death; CIT Cold ischaemic time. ^a One patient died of frailty post-transplant 13 months after a Kaffes stent successfully resolved the stricture and another was re-transplanted for chronic rejection so for the purpose of this study, both were not included in the analysis for long-term stricture resolution
