Two hundred cases of renal transplantation from living donors are reported from Shahid Hashemi Nejad Medical Center in Iran. There were 127 male and 73 female patients with 67% in the third and fourth decade of life. All patients received grafts from living donors with 114 cases of HLA haploidentical, 55 cases of HLA identical matches and 24 unrelated donors. One year patient and graft survival...

Polyoma virus nephropathy occurs in 3% to 4% of renal transplant recipients, causing graft loss in 50% of cases. The objective of the present study was to explore the effects of age, sex, post-transplantation period and plasma creatinine levels on the polyoma virus infection in kidney transplanted patients. Urine samples were collected from 362 patients, centrifuged and microscopic slides prepa...

Patients with end-stage liver disease with renal failure can be considered for simultaneous liver kidney transplantation. There are, however, no clear guidelines as to the management of the well-compensated cirrhotic patient with end-stage renal disease. We present the case of a patient with cirrhosis who decompensated after renal transplantation. With no indication for liver transplantation, c...

BACKGROUND Renal transplantation has been established as a treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) due to diabetic nephropathy. However, few studies have focused on the outcome after renal transplantation in patients with ESRD and type 2 diabetic nephropathy. To investigate the effect of renal transplantation on ESRD with type 2 diabetic nephropathy, we retrospectively analyzed patients wh...

background the human leukocyte antigen (hla) system is widely used as a strategy in the search for the etiology of renal function impairment. objectives this study was carried out to detect the most common hla alleles’ distribution in kidney transplant in both donors and recipients, and clarify the association between hla alleles and renal dysfunction immediately after transplantation. patients...

background: primary infection with bk virus (bkv) is occurred during childhood and usually asymptomatic, but after initial infection, bkv may persist lifelong in the kidney and genitourinary tract. reactivation may occur in individuals with compromised immunity such as renal transplant recipients. due to the role of bkv in bk virus-associated nephropathy (bkvan) and potentially renal allograft ...
