Chronic renal homograft function

Chronic hypophosphatemia in the renal homograft recipient.

Tubular dysfunctions of renal homograft cases have been reported from several aspects (I). However, chronic hypophosphatemia of the kidney transplant recipient is a relatively new topic (4). It is encountered frequently and is considered to be very important in differential diagnosis of persistent hyperparathyroidism. We studied this chronic hypophosphatemia in our intrafamiliar renal homograft...

Parenthood in renal homograft recipients.

Nineteen male recipients of renal homografts were responsible for 23 pregnancies, resulting so far in 19 live births and one abortion; three additional wives have not yet been delivered of infants. Eighteen of the 19 infants were normal; the abnormal infant had a myelomeningocele and other anom.alies. Eight female recipients have become pregnant ten times. Two of the pregnancies were terminated...

Hepatic Disorders in Renal Homograft Recipients*t

Renal homotransplantation was performed in 185 patients between March 1962 and April 1968. None of the recipients, who were aged 3 to 55 years, had known liver disease prior to transplantation, although in 39 of the earlier cases adequate biochemical tests were not obtained preoperatively to establish this fact. In the other 146, hepatic function was studied before operation and at frequent int...

The complement system in renal homograft recipents.

The whole serum complement and its components were studied in 24 recipients of 27 renal homografts. In 12 of 13 instances in which homograft rejection was diagnosed, it was accompanied by significant declines in CHSO, IASO, C4, and C3 levels, and to a lesser degree in C1 and C2 levels. Fourteen patients had normal graft function during the postoperative course of study, and in 13 of the 14 the ...
