Short and Long Term Complications after Pediatric Liver Transplantation: A Review and Literature
Background: Pediatric liver transplant is a complex surgical procedure. Pediatric liver transplantation has evolved over the last two decades into an effective and widely accepted therapy for infants and children. The aim of our report is to review the current state of knowledge and explore the incidence of complications, the involved pathogens among liver recipients to determine the effective ...
متن کاملTroponin T release after heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND For the diagnosis of myocardial cell damage the measurement of the serum concentrations of myofibrillar antigens has several potential advantages over the assessment of traditional serological markers. These include the expression of myofibrillar antigens as cardiospecific isoforms and their high intracellular concentrations. Recently a sensitive and specific enzyme immunoassay for c...
متن کاملPredictive value of high-sensitive troponin T to rule out acute rejection after heart transplantation.
time after HT (R = -0.49; P = .0001). The ROC curve of hs-TnT for detecting AR was 0.682 (95%CI, 0.54-0.81; P = .01). A hs-TnT concentration < 17 ng/L ruled out AR with a sensitivity and a negative predictive value of 100%, but a specificity of 13% (Table 2); there were 29 true negatives for AR with hs-TnT < 17 ng/L. In a mixed-effects logistic regression model, the hs-TnT values were log trans...
متن کاملHealth Insurance Trajectories and Long-Term Survival After Heart Transplantation.
BACKGROUND Health insurance status at heart transplantation influences recipient survival, but implications of change in insurance for long-term outcomes are unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Adults aged 18 to 64 receiving first-time orthotopic heart transplants between July 2006 and December 2013 were identified in the United Network for Organ Sharing registry. Patients surviving >1 year were cat...
متن کاملLong term survival after heart transplantation for doxorubicin induced cardiomyopathy.
A 10 year old child developed severe cardiomyopathy after combined, multicycle chemotherapy for Ewing's sarcoma and was treated by heart transplantation with good results. Long term azathioprine and cyclosporin caused only mild impairment of immune function and there were no recurrent infections, local recurrences of the tumour, or distant metastases.
