Marginal cardiac allografts do not have increased primary graft dysfunction in alternate list transplantation.
BACKGROUND Clinical success with modern heart transplantation (HT) has led to the development of an alternate list (AL) HT strategy, matching marginal cardiac allografts with recipients who do not meet standard criteria for HT. Marginal allografts may be at an increased risk for primary graft dysfunction (PGD), the leading cause of early mortality after HT.(1) The incidence of PGD in AL HT rela...
متن کاملPrimary Graft Dysfunction After Lung Transplantation.
Primary graft dysfunction is a form of acute injury after lung transplantation that is associated with significant short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. Multiple mechanisms contribute to the pathogenesis of primary graft dysfunction, including ischemia reperfusion injury, epithelial cell death, endothelial cell dysfunction, innate immune activation, oxidative stress, and release of infl...
متن کاملAprotinin in lung transplantation is associated with an increased incidence of primary graft dysfunction.
OBJECTIVE Aprotinin has been widely used to reduce bleeding and transfusion requirements in cardiac surgery and in lung transplantation. A recent study found a significant reduction in severe (grade III) primary graft dysfunction (PGD) in lung transplantation where aprotinin had been used. However, recently, concerns regarding the safety of aprotinin have been raised, and the future use of apro...
متن کاملDonor serum SMARCAL1 concentrations predict primary graft dysfunction in cardiac transplantation.
BACKGROUND Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a life-threatening complication in cardiac transplantation. A sensitive, specific, and easily measurable predictor in donors could facilitate PGD prevention. METHODS AND RESULTS SMARCAL1 is a matrix-associated regulator of chromatin with helicase and ATPase activities, and its serum concentrations were significantly increased in a targeted protein...
متن کاملLong Term Impact of Primary Graft Dysfunction after Lung Transplantation
According to the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) Registry, graft failure accounted for 24.7% of deaths within 30 days of transplantation among adult lung recipients between 1992 and 2012 [1]. Although important details distinguishing different causes of early graft failure may be missing from the Registry data, it is likely that primary graft dysfunction (PGD) i...
