Use of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin for induction immunosuppression in high-risk kidney transplant recipients.
Kidney transplant remains the best type of renal replacement therapy in most patients with end-stage kidney disease, even in those with high immunologic risk. Immunosuppression in these patients is regarded as more complex, owing to the higher risk of both acute and chronic rejection. The advent of induction immunosuppression has resulted in a lower incidence of acute rejection and consequently...

Abstract Background: Lymphoproliferative disorders are among the most serious and potentially fatal complications of chronic immunosuppression in kidney transplant recipients. The principle risk factors for development of PTLD are the degree of overall immunosuppression and the EBV serostatus of the recipient. In this study, the risk of PTLD in kidney transplant recipients who received Anti- L...

Background: The goal of Induction therapy is to prevent acute rejection during the early posttransplantation period by providing a high degree of Immunosuppression at the time of transplantation. Induction therapy is often considered essential to optimize outcomes, especially in patients at high risk for poor short-term outcomes. The optimal prophylactic induction immunosuppressive therapy to p...
متن کاملRabbit Anti-Thymocyte Globulin: Evidence for Clinical Benefit in High Immunological Risk Kidney Transplantation
Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin is used worldwide to treat and prevent rejection in kidney transplantation. Multiple mechanisms of action of this polyclonal preparation are responsible for its success. Studies have supported clinical benefits of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin in high immunological risk kidney transplant recipients when used as an induction agent at the time of transplant and for...
متن کاملPREGNANCY IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS
ABSTRACT Background: Correction of the uremic state by a functioning allograft often restores fertility in women of reproductive age. The rate of fertility significantly differs between industrial countries, developing and middle east countries. On the other hand the results of pregnancy in Kidney Transplantation (KTP) patients are significantly better than hemodialysis patients, and pregnancy...
