Prevention of Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation in Kidney Transplant Recipients
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation is a major risk factor for hepatic dysfunction, acute or chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma after kidney transplantation (KTP). The present article summarizes some of published articles about prevention of HBV reactivation in renal transplant recipients METHODS: Many articles published in English language as f...
متن کاملPitfall of hepatitis B surface antigen testing in a kidney transplant recipient presenting hepatitis B reactivation.
Diagnosis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection based on hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) detection can be hampered in the setting of HBV reactivation in immunocompromized patients with prior serology indicating past cured infection, and can be associated with severe or fulminant and fatal hepatitis. We present a case of HBV reactivation in a renal transplant patient in whom HBsAg failed to b...

متن کاملBelatacept conversion in African American kidney transplant recipients with severe renal dysfunction
OBJECTIVES Conversion from calcineurin inhibitor-based maintenance immunosuppression to belatacept in kidney transplant recipients has been demonstrated to improve renal function while maintaining efficacy against rejection. However, conversion studies to date have excluded patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 35 mL/min/1.73 m2. METHODS We describe two patients with an esti...
متن کاملPre-transplant immune factors may be associated with BK polyomavirus reactivation in kidney transplant recipients
BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) reactivation in kidney transplant recipients can lead to allograft damage and loss. The elements of the adaptive immune system that are permissive of reactivation and responsible for viral control remain incompletely described. We performed a prospective study evaluating BKPyV-specific T-cell response, humoral response and overall T-cell phenotype beginning pre-transplan...
