Hi, as you told the history, this is not an absolute contraindication for renal allograft transplant, we've transplanted many of such cases even more severe than this. In renal angiography of the recipient usually does when he's diabetic and above 60's to see about the calcification of vessels, in such case we start Anticoagulation as early as possible, this is also not an absolute contraindication. You can change the donor but cannot deny the recipient.
