We report the case of a 68-year-old woman with end-stage liver disease and end-stage renal disease scheduled for simultaneous liver and kidney transplant. Intraoperatively, she became hemodynamically unstable during her liver transplant surgery, and her renal transplant had to be postponed. On the following day, she required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and ABIOMED Impella support for managing her severe cardiovascular decompensation. At the same time, the renal transplant was conducted to use the donor kidney already allocated for this patient. The patient was successfully managed postoperatively in the cardiothoracic intensive care unit and was discharged after 2 months. This case is unique because there are no similar cases previously reported in which renal transplantation was performed with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella support following cardiogenic shock after a liver transplant. 相似文献

We report a case of successful combined heart liver transplant in a patient with a congenital solitary kidney. The patient had normal renal function before combined heart-liver transplantation and developed acute kidney injury requiring slow continuous dialysis and subsequent intermittent dialysis for almost 8 weeks post transplantation. Her renal function recovered and she remains off dialysis now 7 months post transplantation. She only currently has mild chronic renal insufficiency. We believe this is the first reported case of successful heart liver transplant in a patient with a congenital solitary kidney. 相似文献

We describe a unique case of a 53-year-old woman who underwent a nonrelated living donor kidney transplant 9 years after a previous small bowel transplant from her sister. The patient had suffered from short bowel syndrome secondary to volvulus after undergoing bariatric surgery for morbid obesity. Her entire small bowel had to be resected emergently, but she also developed acute kidney failure at the time. This initial kidney injury associated with long-term exposure to calcineurin-inhibitor medication eventually led to end-stage renal disease. A successful kidney transplant from a different, nonrelated adult donor was performed. Of note, the unrelated kidney donor matched exactly the 2 HLA-A and HLA-B antigens that the recipient had not matched with her sister. We discuss the unique HLA configuration between the patient and her 2 living donors, the absence of posttransplant rejection and posttransplant immunosuppressive therapy. To our knowledge this is the first published report of a successful kidney after a previous bowel transplant using (2 different) living donors. 相似文献

Aspergillus infection of the allograft in renal transplant patients is rare and associated with a high mortality. We report a case of a 21-year-old, human immunodeficiency virus–positive, deceased-donor kidney recipient who presented 1 year after transplant with oliguric kidney injury. A nuclear medicine renal scan revealed absence of flow to the transplanted kidney, and a urine fungal culture was positive for Aspergillus flavus. The diagnosis was confirmed with the presence of fungal hyphae along with thrombosis in the vascular structures in renal allograft pathology. We found no evidence of disseminated aspergillosis or involvement of any other organ in the patient. To our knowledge, this case is the first reported in the literature of late-onset non-disseminated renal-limited aspergillosis in a human immunodeficiency virus–positive renal transplant patient. 相似文献

Background
Patients on peritoneal dialysis treatment represent 15% of the global dialysis population. The major complication of peritoneal dialysis is catheter and peritoneal infection. Peritoneal dialysis patients who receive kidney transplants are at increased risk of infection because of immunosuppressive therapy.Aim
The purpose of this study is to show our ideal timing to remove peritoneal catheter after kidney transplant, which gives adequate security on renal function recovery and reduction of septic risk.Method of Study
We analyzed the outcomes of 65 patients on peritoneal dialysis who underwent kidney transplant between 2000 and 2016.Results
In 61 cases there was an immediate graft functional recovery. In 4 cases there was a delayed graft function (DGF), and we performed a hemodialysis with temporary placement of a venous catheter. In all patients we removed peritoneal dialysis catheter 30 to 45 days after transplant. There has been 1 case of catheter infection, which was treated with antibiotic therapy.Discussion
Our average time to remove the peritoneal dialysis catheter was shorter than times in previous studies, between the 30th and 45th postoperative day. In the 4 cases in which there has been a DGF, we performed hemodialysis treatment to avoid, in the immediate postoperative period, direct insults to the peritoneum by local dialysis procedures.Conclusion
Our experience show that the 30th to 45th postoperative day is a good time frame, better yet a good watershed between the safe removal of peritoneal catheter when patients have a stabilized renal function and the possibility of leaving it in situ, to resume peritoneal dialysis in case of persistent DGF. 相似文献7.

Trichoblastoma is rare, benign skin neoplasm that may be difficult to distinguish from malignant baso-cellular skin cancer. Renal transplant recipients are at increased risk for development of skin malignancies. Resection and histopathological evaluation of a suspicious lesion is mandatory to determine malignant skin changes. We present the first reported case of trichoblastoma in a renal transplant recipient. Proper diagnosis enables less aggressive resection and maintenance of the same immunosuppressive protocol. 相似文献

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an important and preventable cause of chronic kidney disease due to secondary amyloidosis. Although colchicine is the first-line therapy in patients with FMF with 60% to 65% complete remission rates, 5% to 10% of patients are colchicine-resistant and 5% to 10% of them are intolerant to the therapy. Anti–interleukin-1 agents, such as anakinra and canakinumab, are safe and efficient therapeutic options in patients with colchicine resistance or intolerance. However, the data on management of these targeted agents is limited in recipients of kidney transplant (RKT). In this case series, we aim to share our experience on canakinumab therapy of 4 RKTs with FMF-related amyloidosis, who were followed up in our clinic between 2010 and 2017. All of the 4 patients with end-stage renal disease were colchicine- resistant and on other alternative therapies, which provided poor disease control. For efficient control of secondary amyloidosis, canakinumab therapy was initiated in 1 of the patients before the renal transplant, and for the remaining patients after renal transplant. Any serious adverse effect, development of proteinuria, or graft dysfunction has not been observed in any of the patients. Under the canakinumab treatment, complete clinical responses, prevent typical familial Mediterranean fever attacks with fever and arthritis and abdominal pain, normalized serum amyloid A and C-reactive protein levels were achieved in all patients. Canakinumab treatment is a safe and effective therapeutic option for RKTs with FMF who are resistant or intolerant to colchicine and anakinra. 相似文献

Mucormycosis has emerged as a major threat to transplant recipients with high morbidity and mortality. This infection most commonly presents with rhino-sino-orbital localization. Gastrointestinal mucormycosis is uncommon, with presenting symptoms usually abdominal in nature. Here, we describe the case of a liver transplant recipient who developed gastrointestinal mucormycosis with an initial manifestation of femoral nerve palsy, ultimately resulting in fungal dissemination and patient demise. This case highlights the challenges in making a timely diagnosis of mucormycosis, particularly in immunocompromised patients. 相似文献

We report a case of a 70-year-old woman with a history of end-stage renal disease secondary to polycystic kidney disease with a previous failed transplant who presented for a cadaveric extraperitoneal renal transplant. The patient developed a progressively worsening bowel obstruction postoperatively and evidence of an obstruction was observed on computed tomography imaging with a transition point at the level of the sigmoid colon. Consequent to this, she underwent an exploratory laparotomy, which revealed kinking of the colon secondary to the compression between the transplanted and the left native polycystic kidneys. There were adhesive bands between the native kidney and the descending colon in the retroperitoneal space maintaining it in a fixed position mechanically. The addition of a retroperitoneal transplant exacerbated this kink and was responsible for the bowel obstruction. Her left colon was completely mobilized to relieve her obstruction, and owing to her bowel distension, her abdomen was left open for 2 days before returning to the operating room to remove her left native polycystic kidney to allow space for safe closure. This report highlights an extremely unusual cause of large bowel obstruction post–kidney transplantation. 相似文献

Tumors of the kidney account for approximately 25% of all (solid) neoplasms in infants and children.1 Renal cell carcinoma had been considered so rare that Gross, in 1953, noted that there had not been a case at Children's Hospital in Boston in 30 yr.2 In the last few years, however, renal cell carcinoma in children has been reported with increasing frequency. A recent case of renal cell carcinoma in a 9-yr-old girl prompted us to review our own past experience with this tumor in children. Three additional cases of hypernephroma were discovered in a review of the records of the past 11 yr. They were previously alluded to by Poole and Viamonte, in their excellent article “Unusual Renal Masses in the Pediatric Age Group.”3 相似文献

IntroductionThere are limited reports regarding renal paratransplant hernia (RPH), which is a rare type of internal hernia. Herein, we report a case of successful laparoscopic treatment of RPH.Presentation of caseA kidney transplant recipient presented to our emergency department with a 6-h history of abdominal pain and vomiting. The patient had received a living-related donor kidney transplantation and native nephrectomy in our hospital last year. Computed tomography (CT) confirmed a diagnosis of RPH. We performed laparoscopic exploration, and the findings showed an incarcerated small bowel in the retroperitoneal space through a peritoneal defect. Short laparotomy was performed to resect the non-viable bowel. The peritoneal defect was opened adequately. The patient’s postoperative course was uneventful, with no complications.DiscussionRPH is an uncommon variant of internal hernia, which is a rare surgical complication after kidney transplantation. Early diagnosis and treatment are important once RPH develops. Due to immunosuppression in kidney transplant recipients, typical signs of peritonitis were not observed. This event can be critical to the patient. Laparoscopic surgery has recently become a treatment option for small bowel obstructions. We believe that this surgical procedure is useful for patients with RPH.ConclusionWe report a case of RPH treated laparoscopically. This approach can be a treatment of choice for RPH. 相似文献

Background
Condyloma acuminatum (CA) is a common sexually transmitted disease associated with human papilloma virus (HPV). CA occurring in the urethra is rare and has not been reported in male renal transplant recipients. In addition, despite immunosuppressive conditions and increased risk of HPV-related malignant neoplasms in transplant recipients, HPV testing in male transplant recipients has been uncommon. Here we report a case of urethral CA in a male deceased donor renal transplantation recipient and discuss the importance of HPV testing in male transplant recipients.Case Presentation
A 33-year-old male deceased donor renal transplant recipient presented with miction pain 5 years after the transplantation. He reported repeated urinary tract infections with no sexual contact since the renal transplantation. Multiple papillary tumors in his penile urethra were detected by cystoscopy, and a biopsy sample was pathologically diagnosed with CA. Transurethral tumor resection was performed, and the tumors were completely resected. Additional HPV risk type screening with a urethral smear sample showed the prevalence of low-risk HPV. Although tacrolimus was switched to everolimus and imiquimod cream was administered, the tumors recurred 6 months after the resection, and a second resection was performed. No further recurrence has been observed for 1 year to date.Conclusion
As the urethral CA was possibly related to immunosuppressive conditions and a risk for HPV-related malignant neoplasm, the case required careful diagnosis, including HPV risk type. The methodology of sampling for HPV testing in men has not been established. This case suggests the necessity for further discussion about HPV testing in male transplant recipients. 相似文献14.

Four months after a cadaver kidney transplant, kidney stones were found in the renal allograft. Three major predisposing causes of nephrolithiasis were found in the patient, including hyperparathyroidism, renal tubular acidosis, and urinary tract infection. Hypercalcemia was corrected by parathyroidectomy. During the subsequent three years there was no enlargement of the renal stones and adequate kidney function was maintained. Renal tubular acidosis was not severe and seemed to be related to chronic rejection. Urinary tract infection was readily corrected with antibiotics and did not recur after the immediate post-transplant period. Surgical therapy for nephrolithiasis involving a kidney allograft was deferred since urinary flow was not obstructed. This course of management is recommended for use in patients with calculi complicating renal transplantation. 相似文献

BackgroundUrinary tract infections (UTI) are common nosocomial infections in kidney transplant recipients, with limited evidence to guide antibiotic prophylaxis at urinary catheter removal. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of short-term antibiotic therapy at the moment of catheter removal after kidney transplantation.MethodsTwenty kidney transplant recipients received 250 mg of ciprofloxacin orally twice daily 1 day before and at the day of the removal of the urinary catheter and were compared with 20 kidney transplant recipients without prophylaxis. UTI was diagnosed by use of urine culture and clinical signs.ResultsAll patients were comparable in sex, age, etiology of end-stage renal failure, immunosuppression, donor type, and initial function. After catheter removal at the 6th postoperative day, a rapid rise of UTI in kidney transplant recipients without prophylaxis (n = 12, 60%) was observed, whereas in patients with antibiotic prophylaxis the rate of UTI could be significantly reduced to 20%. Escherichia coli was the most isolated pathogen in the patients with UTI and was detected at the catheter tip in more than 50% of cases. In 2 patients (10%) after antibiotic prophylaxis, a ciprofloxacin-resistant E coli strain was detected.ConclusionsThe use of antibiotic prophylaxis during urinary catheter removal is recommended to prevent UTI in kidney transplant recipients. 相似文献

AIM OF STUDY: The aim of this study is to find out the method for the nephrostomy of which catheter can be introduced from the abdominal wall. METHODS: Subjects were the 7 patients whose agreement for this new method could be obtained. After the general nephrostomy was performed, 3 cm skin incision to the outer portion of nephrostomy, as well as 5 mm skin incision to the abdominal wall were added, and the subcutaneous tunnel between the both skin incisions was made using the special tunneler. A guide wire was introduced into the renal pelvis through the subcutaneous tunnel, and then 14 F Maleocot catheter was introduced from the abdominal skin incision to the renal pelvis. At the skin incision of the nephrostomy, catheter and subcutaneous tissue were fixed using 3-0 cutgut suture to prevent the outcomming of the catheter. RESULTS: In case 1 to case 4 showed some trouble, but case 5 to 7 showed no trouble. The operation time and the extent of invasion of our method were as well as that of the general nephrostomy, but the managements by the patients were as simple as that of the ureterocutaneostomy. CONCLUSION: The quality of our patients seem to close to that of uretero-cutaneostomy. And for the patients who have hydronephrosis after several type of urinary diversions, our method should be recommendable than the general nephrostomy. 相似文献

Fungal infections have an important role in organ transplant recipients, and in some cases can be lethal. Blastomycosis is rare in kidney transplantation. We present a case of cutaneous blastomycosis in a kidney transplant recipient in Tunisia, a country outside the known endemic countries. This case, with the very uncommon and unexpected diagnosis of blastomycosis, demonstrates the diversity of infections in transplant recipients and reflects the importance of histologic and serologic tests in the immunocompromised patient. 相似文献

In recent years, the frequency of high-risk kidney transplantations has increased. We report a case in which a 72-year-old man with various severe comorbidities (prostate cancer, diabetes mellitus, complete atrioventricular block, coronary artery stenosis, severe stenosis of the popliteal arteries, and severe calcification of the iliac arteries) who received an orthotopic kidney transplantation. To prevent the occurrence of acute limb ischemia due to the steal phenomenon (caused by the kidney graft), we decided that a heterotopic kidney transplantation involving the iliac arteries was not an appropriate option. Therefore, as an alternative, left native nephrectomy was performed followed by an orthotopic kidney transplantation to the native renal artery and renal vein through a left subcostal incision. Postoperative ureteral stenosis occurred, and so stent exchange was required every 6 months. Despite the ureteral complication, the patient's serum creatinine level was 1.5 mg/dL at 2 years after the procedure. 相似文献

An unusual case of early double kidney transplant dysfunction due to abdominal compartment syndrome is herein reported. A 62-year-old woman on peritoneal dialysis underwent dual kidney transplantation. The grafts were positioned extraperitoneally in both iliac possae using standard techniques. Surgical procedures and immediate postoperative period were uneventful. The urine output was immediate and the creatinine decreased, but in a few days she developed severe ascites with reduced urine output, increased creatinine, and progressive changes on Doppler ultrasound. The patient underwent paracentesis: the kidney function recovered as well as the Doppler ultrasound. Kidney biopsy was negative for rejection or renal pathology. Graft dysfunction was related to the presence of ascites. A catheter inserted in the abdomen measured intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) of 14 mm Hg. IAP correlated with renal function showing that IAP probably explained renal flow modifications. 相似文献

Lenalidomide, a thalidomide analogue, is an immunomodulatory drug currently used as a chemotherapeutic agent in treating certain hematologic malignancies, including multiple myeloma. The antineoplastic effect of lenalidomide may be due to its ability to modulate different components of the immune system as well as its antiangiogenic, antiproliferative, and direct cytotoxic activity. Given its immunomodulatory effects, lenalidomide may potentially elicit unintended immune activity against allografts in solid organ transplant recipients. Here, we present a case of a renal transplant recipient who developed multiple myeloma after transplantation and was treated with the use of lenalidomide, which precipitated severe acute T-cell–mediated rejection. Lenalidomide was thought to be causative, and after cessation of the drug her renal function stabilized. 相似文献
