Purpose We wanted to compare glycemic control post pancreas transplantation with newer therapeutic options. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of pancreas transplantation at our institution from January 1, 2008, through September 30, 2021. All patients who underwent pancreatic transplantation were 18 years and older. We compared pre‐transplant glycemic control of those patients, whether self‐monitoring or continuous glucose monitor to their post‐transplant glycemic control. Outcomes were assessed by HgbA1C level at evaluation (eval), pretransplant (pre), within the first 5 months posttransplant (post) and 1 year post transplant (1 year). Results One hundred and thirty‐four patients underwent pancreas transplantation during the 14‐year study period. Overall, 1‐year patient and graft survival were 95% and 88%. The mean HgbA1C (%) for eval and pre were 8.5(SD ± 1.7) and 8.3(SD ± 1.7), which was significantly higher than post, and 1 year at 5.1(SD ± .6, p < .01) and 5.2(SD ± .6, p < .01). Of those, 38 patients presented with continuous glucose monitors (CGM) +/− pump. Their mean HgbA1C(%) was 8.2(SD ± 1.5) at eval 8.1(SD ± 1.3). These were also significantly higher than post 5.0(SD ± .6, p < .01), and 1 year 5.1(SD ± .5, p < .01). Conclusion Pancreas transplant provides superior glycemic control to continuous glucose monitoring and remains the optimal therapy for appropriately selected patients with diabetes.
