Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common metabolic complication in kidney allograft recipients, significantly contributing to the elevated cardiovascular morbidity after renal transplantation and increased risk of chronic transplant dysfunction. The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the factors influencing PTDM development. Under particular consideration were the elements, existing before the transplantation, especially the modality of dialysis treatment significance, i.e. haemodialysis (HD) versus peritoneal dialysis (PD).
