Transplantation: Kidney, Kidney–Pancreas Transplant

2014
With in-depth understanding of transplant immunology, more sensitive assays have been developed for immunological risk assessment, crossmatch, and detection of donor-specific antibodies. The discovery of potent immunosuppressive drugs has successfully reduced the risk of acute rejection and graft loss from rejection.

A profound kidney shortage compromises the effective care of renal failure patients in the United States and other nations. This article discusses the need for kidneys, the procurement of live donor and cadaver organs, and strategies to increase organ donation. It suggests that the kidney shortage can be minimized and perhaps eliminated through the use

Revue medicale suisse, 2015
Transition from pediatric to adult care in renal transplantation has emerged as a critical step in the life of a young kidney recipient. During this phase, young patients are faced with the physiological and psychological changes associated with adolescence that can lead to non-compliance and potentially graft loss.

Matchability in kidney transplantation

Tissue Antigens, 1988
The matchablity of a patient awaiting kidney transplantation is his propensity for being ‘well‐matched’. We present two methods for estimating matchability. It is commonly supposed that phenotype frequency is a good predictor of matchability. We show a correlation of only 0.3 between matchability and phenotype frequency using the definition of ‘well ...

Anesthesia and Kidney Transplantation

Transplantation Proceedings, 2013
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has diverse causes and the outcomes can change with renal transplantation, which has the potential to increase quality of life and improve survival. Because transplant recipients usually have comorbid conditions, presurgical assessment, optimization of health status, monitoring, and intraoperative anesthetic management are ...

Hypertension and kidney transplantation

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1986
Hypertension in kidney transplant patients is a common complication that affects long-term patient and allograft survival. Although multifactorial in nature, at least two causes can be corrected by surgical or radiologic intervention--stenosis and native kidney-associated hypertension.
