<b><i>Background:</i></b> Calcific uremic arteriolopathy (CUA) is a rare but serious disorder affecting 4% of dialysis patients. Intravenous sodium thiosulfate (IV STS) has been shown as an effective treatment. In Canada, the average cost IV STS about CAD 12,000 per month, while compounded oral 45 month. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Prospective cohort where all patients diagnosed with CUA during year 2011 were included. They treated initially STS....
Determining eligibility for a kidney transplant is an important decision. Practice guidelines define contraindications to transplantation; however many are not evidence based. Canadian recommend that patients unlikely survive the wait period be evaluated. The purpose of this study was evaluate what proportion with contraindication would time.Consecutive incident dialysis (January 2006 December 2012) contraindication, defined using guidelines, were studied. Mortality rates determined each...
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death among patients with end-stage renal undergoing maintenance dialysis. Renal transplantation offers a survival advantage to disease; it also associated three- fivefold increase in risk developing neoplasm. OBJECTIVE: To determine yield screening colonoscopy chronic kidney who were considered for transplantation. METHODS: Patients included if they ≥50 years age, had and being They underwent that was performed as part their...
Transplant tourism (TT) violates many international laws and documents. Despite all efforts, TT seems to be increasing. The aim of this study is review outcomes recipients commercially transplanted kidneys since the Declaration Istanbul.All kidney transplantation done abroad then returning our centre, from September 2008 December 2015, were included (tourists). Demographics collected patients' charts. All data compared with living donor transplants at centre (locals).A total 86 tourists 365...
There is a concern that some, especially older people, are not referred and could benefit from transplantation.We retrospectively examined consecutive incident end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients at our center January 2006 to December 2009. At ESRD start, were classified into those with or without contraindications using Canadian eligibility criteria. Based on referral for transplantation, grouped as CANDIDATE (no contraindication referred), NEITHER referred) CONTRAINDICATION. The...
Introducere: Rinichii cu artere multiple reprezintã o provocare deosebitã pentru chirurg, atât în timpul nefrectomiei la donator cât şi al transplantului renal.Scopuri: Scopurile acestui studiu sunt evaluarea rezultatelor a donatorilor recipienţilor rinichilor procuraţi pe cale laparoscopicã.Pacienţi Metodã: Am analizat retrospectiv datele medicale tuturor vii care au donat rinichi laparoscopicã între aprilie 2009 decembrie 2014.Detaliile intraoperatorii evoluţia imediatã fost comparate...
BACKGROUND:Kidney transplant services all over the world were severely impacted by coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. The optimum management of kidney recipients with remains uncertain. MATERIAL AND METHODS:We conducted a multicenter cohort study infection in Saudi Arabia. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to predictors graft and patient outcomes at 28 days after diagnosis. RESULTS:We included 130 recipients, mean age 48.7(±14.4) years. Fifty-nine patients managed home daily...
Infections remain a dreadful complication after solid organ transplantation. Almost all microorganisms could cause this complication, including unusual ones. We report 73-year-old patient, with history of kidney transplant for 38 years on minimum immunosuppression, who presented high-grade fever and gastrointestinal symptoms. Klebsiella ozaenae was isolated from blood cultures. She had prompt response to antibiotics recovered completely in short period. Subsequent evaluation her nasal cavity...
Delayed graft function (DGF) is a form of acute renal failure which results in increased post-transplantation allograft immunogenicity and risk rejection episodes addition to decreased long-term survival. Its incidence factors have been extensively studied, especially after deceased donation. Until now, only few data has published on DGF living donor kidney transplant recipients. The present study was performed investigate the frequency among living- In this retrospective study, had...
Background and objectives: Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with significant morbidity mortality in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Therefore, they are considered among the priority group for vaccination. This study presents safety data antibody response to BNT162b2 ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccines KTRs.
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death among patients with end stage renal on maintenance dialysis. Renal transplantation offers survival advantage to disease. It also associated a 3-5-fold increase in risk developing neoplasm. The majority these malignancies are nonmelanoma skin cancers and lymphoproliferative disorders. colorectal cancer increases after solid organ transplantation. Colonoscopy has been reduced mortality from cancer. We therefore determined...
Background: Kidney transplantation is the optimal choice for patients with end stage renal disease. However, most kidney grafts will fail at some point during lifetime of recipient. This study presents outcome data in failed graft.
Background: Living kidney donation constitutes the main source of organs in countries where deceased donor programs are not well established. Isolated microscopic hematuria (IMH) is uncommon living donors (LKDs), and it needs full work up order to accept or decline such donor. Most transplant centers defined persistent IMH by presence more than 4 RBCs per HPF on urine microscopy. Our aim was study prevalence LKDs, describe biopsy findings examine whether negative microscopy despite positive...
Kidney transplantation is considered the best choice for patients with end stage renal disease. However, recurrence of primary disease, especially glomerular disease represents a major problem. Nodular glomerulosclerosis its wide differential diagnosis can recur post kidney and might results in graft failure. Here, we report unique case 35 years old male idiopathic nodular that recurred twice after two successful living donor transplants.
