Hypertension in renal transplant recipients: role of bilateral nephrectomy.
Of 81 transplanted kidneys which functioned for six months or more 59 were transplanted to bilaterally nephrectomized recipients and 22 to recipients who retained their own kidneys. There was an excess of hypertension in the non-nephrectomized group (17/22) as compared to 24/59 in the nephrectomized patients, though renal function was better in the non-nephrectomized group. Hypertension became ...
متن کاملImmunosuppressive Drugs and Kidney Post-transplant Diabetes Mellitus
Background: As the rate of renal transplantation increases, more immunosuppressive drugs such as cyclosporine A (CsA) are consumed, particularly during the early months following transplantation, leading to post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) which can cause death. Objective: The present study examined the role of CsA in causing PTDM and other effect...
متن کاملTherapy refractory hypertension in haemodialysis patients has become a rare indication for bilateral nephrectomy
Sir, Recently, our group conducted a supplementary study on urinary abnormalities following karate (kumite) competitions in professional female athletes. In a previous issue of NDT Plus [1], our group presented data showing significantly increased proteinuria of a mixed type (albumin and beta2-microglobulin or B2M) with prominence of albumin, as a glomerular urine protein, in 18 professional (1...
متن کاملThe Role of Native Nephrectomy in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease Transplant Candidates
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetic condition characterized by the development of multiple cysts in the kidneys, liver, and pancreas. In the United States, the mean age of presentation for ADPKD is between the 3rd and 5th decades, and approximately 50% of patients will develop ESRD by age 60, making ADPKD responsible for 7-10% of the ESRD population. The objective ...
متن کاملNative Nephrectomy in Renal Transplant Recipients With Autosomal-Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
BACKGROUND Native nephrectomy (NNx) is often done in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Controversy exists concerning the need and timing of nephrectomy in transplant candidates. We hypothesize that post-transplant NNx does not negatively impact patient and graft survival. METHODS Among 470 ADPKD transplant recipients included in the study, 114 (24.3%) underwe...
