ABSTRACT Introduction Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common opportunistic infection in solid organ transplant patients. Intravenous CMV immunoglobulin (CMV‐IVIG) pharmacotherapy option with limited data within heart transplantation. At UCHealth, CMV‐IVIG was removed from the prophylaxis protocol July 2022. This study evaluated efficacy and cost outcomes of removal protocol. Methods single‐center, retrospective cohort recipients transplanted at UCHealth between October 2020 March 2023. Patients...
Patients with diabetes have an increased risk for allograft rejection, possibly related to peri-operative hyperglycaemia. Hyperglycaemia is also common following transplantation in patients without diabetes. We hypothesise that exposure of tissue hyperglycaemia could influence the rejection any patient high sugars. To investigate relationship glucose control acute renal transplant diabetes, all receiving their first cadaveric graft a single center were surveyed and cyclosporin-based...
The aim of this study is to characterize cardiac remodeling in a large animal model hypertension.23 sheep were subjected unilateral nephrectomy followed by clamping the remaining renal artery 60% ("one kidney-one clip", 1K1C) 3 weeks later. Blood pressure (BP) was monitored invasively over 73+/-28 days. Cardiac function assessed with magnetic resonance imaging and compared 12 size-matched controls. Detailed atrial histopathological analysis performed.In 1K1C animals, BP rose from baseline...
Background : Recent improvements in video technology and surgical instrumentation have resulted the application of minimally invasive techniques to many procedures including splenectomy adrenalectomy. 1 , 2 Nephrectomy requires a long flank incision with division abdominal musculature possible subcostal nerve damage. Severe postoperative pain prolonged recuperative period may result, cosmetic outcome not be satisfactory. A new approach utilizing laparoscopic dissection delivery kidney...
Summary— Sixty per cent of men subjected to prostatectomy had unstable bladders. It was found that this related the presence either an indwelling catheter or obstruction, but little influence on result prostatectomy. The functional urethral pressure profile length did not correlate with size prostate gland. Shortening prostatic plateau always found, extent which reduced urine flow rates.
Sixty-one renal transplants have been performed on 54 patients, using eight kidneys from live donors and 53 cadaveric at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, during a period of five half years. overall survival these patients is 61%, with graft 50% one year 41% two years, which compares favourably the world experience as well combined Australasian experience. post-transplant complications in this group are discussed.
The Australian Safety and Efficacy Register of New Interventional Procedures − Surgical (ASERNIP‐S) audit laparoscopic live‐donor nephrectomy commenced in 1999 concluded 2003. Six centres Australia Zealand contributed data for 219 donor patients regarding perioperative postoperative outcome surgery short‐term follow‐up. These were compared with a recent systematic review LLDN. Australasian experience to date favourably worldwide practice, both terms efficacy safety donors (at least the short...
The demand for renal transplants is greater than the available kidneys. Live donation one way of increasing supply. Laparoscopic removal donor kidney appears to reduce morbidity donors. Some who are hesitant because associated with open nephrectomy willing consider laparoscopic nephrectomy.Laparoscopic was offered all but three donors since commencement programme in 1997. Data were collected both prospectively and retrospectively first 120 Venous arterial anatomy assessed preoperatively by...
Olakkengil SA, Mohan Rao M. Transplantation of kidneys with renal artery aneurysm. Clin Transplant 2011: 25: E516–E519. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Abstract: Background: The use from a select group living and deceased donors aneurysms (RAA) is novel way to increase the number organs available for transplantation. Published literature on outcome transplanted correctable vascular pathology has been reviewed. Materials methods: six transplant recipients who received after repair RAA...
Background:Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy was introduced into Australia in 1997 by this unit. However, some donors may be considered unsuitable, and few modifications to the existing technique can tailor procedure for an individual donor. Recently, further changes including clustering of ports single-port methods have been investigated.Methods:The laparoscopic method offered all but 3 from May October 2009. Data were collected on 289 who underwent procedures.Results:All 5 procedures...
Background: The purpose of the present paper is to introduce a new surgical procedure using external oblique aponeurosis (EOA) for repair spontaneous renal allograft rupture. Methods: Thirty‐eight cases with rupture were encountered in 1000 consecutive kidney transplants between April 1991 and August 2000. Thirty‐three underwent exploration two grafts undergoing nephrectomy, while further 31 repaired procedure. from incision was trimmed into 1 cm × square pieces. A 2/0 Dexon suture placed...
Background. Lymphocoeles post renal transplantation can be difficult to see laparoscopically. The objective of this study was report a new technique catheter or guide‐wire placement for the guidance laparoscopic marsupialization symptomatic transplant lymphocoeles, refractory conservative therapy.
Recent reports suggest that spiral computed tomographic (CT) angiography can replace conventional and intravenous urography for the assessment of potential kidney donors. The purpose this study is to assess accuracy CT in donor workup.Over a period 1 year, from December 1995 1996, 16 consecutive renal donors had pyelography, percutaneous transfemoral with selective angiography. angiograms were assessed independently by two radiologists. number arteries, presence or absence artery stenoses...
The influence of adhesive skin drapes on abdominal wall compliance during laparoscopy has not previously been studied.The effect removing an drape intraperitoneal volume and pressure was studied in 15 patients undergoing a variety laparoscopic procedures. internal consistency this data evaluated by comparing the observed response to that which predicted from analysis based theory elasticity.Removal after induction 15-mmHg pneumoperitoneum associated with changes volume. These were...
