Ultrasonic imaging characteristics of transplanted kidneys with delayed graft function.
We investigated the ultrasonic imaging characteristics of transplanted kidneys with delayed graft function (DGF). Ultrasonography was performed in 44 patients after kidney transplantation, and a time-intensity analysis was performed to compare the differences between patients with normal graft function (NGF) and those with DGF. Compared with the NGF group, the DGF group had earlier arrival time...
متن کاملOxalate deposits in biopsies from native and transplanted kidneys, and impact on graft function.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the incidence of oxalate deposits in native and renal allograft biopsies, and its impact on graft function. METHODS The renal biopsy files at The Johns Hopkins University between 2000 and 2006 were searched to identify biopsies with oxalate deposits, determine the density of oxalate deposits in renal graft biopsies, compare graft histology a...
متن کاملComparison of expanded criteria kidneys with 2-tier standard criteria kidneys: role of delayed graft function in short-term graft outcome.
OBJECTIVES To compare transplant outcomes between expanded criteria donor kidneys and standard criteria donor kidneys. MATERIALS AND METHODS All adult renal transplants from deceased donors performed in Saudi Arabia over a 24-month period were included. Donor and recipient factors were recorded, and their effects on outcomes with expanded criteria donor and standard criteria donor kidneys wer...
متن کاملDelayed Graft Function
Delayed graft function (DGF) is a common complication of renal transplantation. According to a clinical data analysis of 34,647 cases of cadaveric renal transplantation documented by the Renal Transplantation Registry of the United Network Sharing (UNOS), graft function did not recover instantly after transplantation and for ever in some cases; the 1-year rate of graft loss was up to 20% in cas...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted MR imaging of transplanted kidneys: Preliminary report
BACKGROUND An aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of DWI in the early period after kidney transplantation. We also aimed to compare ADC and eADC values in the cortex and medulla of the kidney, to estimate image noise and variability of measurements, and to verify possible relation between selected labolatory results and diffusion parameters in the transplanted kidney. MATERIAL/MET...
