Chronic renal allograft dysfunction.
The major causes of renal transplant loss are death from vascular, malignant or infectious disease, and loss of the allograft from chronic renal dysfunction associated with the development of graft fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis. Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is the histologic description of the fibrosis, vascular and glomerular damage occurring in renal allografts. Clinical programs rel...
متن کاملChronic renal allograft dysfunction: risk factors, immunology and prevention.
INTRODUCTION Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. Despite great progress in surgical aspects and immunosupression therapy, long-term graft survival has not been consistent. Chronic allograft dysfunction (CAD) remains a major cause of late grafts failure. REVIEW CAD is a generic term of all causes of chronic renal allograft dysfunction as...
متن کاملHyperlipidemia accelerates allograft arteriosclerosis (chronic rejection) in the rat.
The relevance of hyperlipidemia in allograft arteriosclerosis (chronic rejection) is controversial. Isolated hypercholesterolemia induced with cholesterol-cholic acid-diet (CC-diet) or hypertriglyceridemia induced with glycerol-diet (G-diet) had no or only a protective effect on aortic allograft arteriosclerosis in the rat. Combined hyperlipidemia with both diets (CC+G-diet) enhanced allograft ...
متن کاملA new classification system for chronic lung allograft dysfunction.
Although survival after lung transplantation has improved significantly during the last decade, chronic rejection is thought to be the major cause of late mortality. The physiologic hallmark of chronic rejection has been a persistent fall in forced expiratory volume in 1 second associated with an obstructive ventilatory defect, for which the term bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) was defi...
متن کاملIs Cholesteatoma a Risk Factor for Graft Success Rate in Chronic Otitis Media Surgery?
Introduction: In developing countries, chronic otitis media (COM) and cholesteatoma are relatively prevalent. Within the field of otology, COM surgery remains one of the most common surgical treatments. Most recent studies evaluating the potential prognostic factors in COM surgery have addressed graft success rate and types of middle ear and mastoid pathology. There has been much controversy a...
