Donor/recipient size mismatching and correlation to allograft outcome remains poorly defined. This study assessed the impact of donor body weight (DBW) to recipient body weight (RBW) ratio on allograft function and survival. A total of 898 deceased donor renal transplant recipients were included in the study. Patients were divided into quartiles depending on the ratio of DBW/RBW: Q1 (≤ 0.88), Q2 (0.89–1.00), Q3 (1.01–1.22) and Q4 (> 1.22). Donor and recipient characteristics were obtained from the national kidney transplant service database. Serum creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 1 and 5 years after transplant were compared. Q4 patients had a higher eGFR 1 year post-transplant (median 59.5 ml/min, IQR 46.8–76.2) compared to Q1–Q3 which had median eGFRs of 54.3, 54.8 and 55.3 ml/min, respectively (p
