Blood transfusion in deceased donor kidney transplantation
BACKGROUND Given the unpredictable timing of deceased donor organs and the need for blood transfusion, this study was carried out to determine the rate and risk factors for transfusion in order to identifying a low-risk cohort in the face of a critical blood shortage. METHODS This retrospective chart review examined 306 consecutive deceased solitary kidney transplant recipients from January 2...
متن کاملLive donor liver transplantation.
With ever-increasing demand for liver replacement, supply of organs is the limiting factor and a significant number of patients die while waiting. Live donor liver transplantation has emerged as an important option for many patients, particularly small pediatric patients and those adults that are disadvantaged by the current deceased donor allocation system. Ideally there would be no need to su...
متن کاملVascular and Biliary Anastomoses in Deceased Donor Orthotopic Liver Transplantation
There are a total of five structures that have to be reconstructed in DDLT. These include the suprahepatic and infrahepatic vena cava, the portal vein, the hepatic artery and the bile duct. Prior to describing the various methods of implantation of the donor liver, we will briefly review the different options available for the recipient hepatectomy, as the surgeon’s choice of reconstruction of ...
متن کاملBlood transfusion in liver transplantation.
Liver transplantation is a relatively new procedure in which unusually large quantities of blood are used. Blood use in 68 adult and 49 pediatric liver transplants was reviewed. The median (range) intraoperative red cell use for adults and children was 28.5 (3-251) and 11 (2-55), respectively. Blood use closely correlated with the patient's primary diagnosis. Adult patients with primary biliary...
متن کاملPotential immunological advantage of intravenous mycophenolate mofetil with tacrolimus and steroids in primary deceased donor liver transplantation and live donor liver transplantation without antibody induction.
With the current immunosuppressive regimens, graft loss secondary to immunological reasons after successful liver transplantation is a rarity; acute rejections, however, do occur, with the majority of them being steroid-responsive. The aim of the present study is to examine the rate of acute rejection with tacrolimus, intravenous (IV) mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and steroids in primary decease...
