Second cadaver kidney transplants: improved graft survival in secondary kidney transplants using cyclosporin A.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A total of 42 patients who had failed prior renal transplantation underwent repeat cadaveric transplantation using cyclosporin A and low dose steroid immunosuppression. Patient survival at 1 year was 100 per cent. Over-all graft survival was 83 per cent at 1 year, which was significantly better than had been obtainable previously in this high risk group. Repeat cadaver transplantation with cyclosporin A is safe and offers those who have failed previous transplantation an opportunity for existence free of dialysis.

Background: Kidney transplantation had been evaluated in some researches in Iran mainly with clinical approach. In this research we evaluated graft survival in kidney recipients and factors impacting on survival rate. Artificial neural networks have a good ability in modeling complex relationships, so we used this ability to demonstrate a model for prediction of 5yr graft survival after ki...
متن کاملLong-term survival after cadaveric renal transplantation.
In a series of 404 consecutive first cadaver kidney transplants performed since 1967 the actuarial five- and 10-year survival of patients were 61% and 47% respectively and of grafts 46% and 36%. In more than four-fifths of the patients surviving these intervals the original cadaveric grafts were functioning at these times, and most of the remainder were sustained by subsequent grafts. Although ...
متن کاملA third kidney transplant: cost-effective treatment for end-stage renal disease?
Given the organ donor shortage, some question whether a third kidney transplant can be justified. We studied the outcome of 51 third transplants (mean age 28 +/- 2 yr) done between 1 January 1985 and 31 December 1994. We compared hospital stay (mean +/- S.E.), cost, readmissions, readmission days, and outcome of third (vs. first and second) transplants. We found that patient survival for third ...
متن کاملStrategies for compensating for the declining numbers of cadaver donor kidney transplants.
BACKGROUND The living-donor and dual kidney transplantation programmes were initiated in the transplantation centre of Münster (TCM) as two approaches to compensate for the declining numbers of cadaver donor kidney transplants after the implementation of the new Eurotransplant Kidney Allocation System (ETKAS). We analysed the outcome of cadaver, living-donor and dual kidney transplantation and ...
متن کاملLiving related donor pancreas and pancreas-kidney transplantation.
Our experience with living related donor (LRD) pancreas transplants shows that they can be performed with low morbidity and mortality for both donors and recipients. The recipient survival rate is 90% at both 1 and 5 years post-transplant. Our overall pancreas graft survival rate is comparable to that for cadaver transplants; if only technically successful cases are included, the graft survival...
