Simultaneous pancreas and kidney (SPK) transplantation is performed to restore normoglycemia and renal function in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and end-stage renal failure.

We aimed to see if SPK transplantation outcomes differed between recipients from metropolitan (M) centers and those from nonmetropolitan (NM) regions.
