Favorable Short-term Outcome in Deceased Kidney Donor Transplantation

چکیده
We read with great interest the article entitled “cadaver transplantation in recent era: is cadaveric graft survival similar to living kidney transplantation?” recently published in IJOTM by Simforoosh, et al [1]. The main message of this retrospective study is that one-year graft and patient survival rates in living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) are similar to those of deceased donor kidney transplantation (DDKT) recipients.

Patient and graft outcomes in deceased-donor kidney transplantation: a good start for a promising future.
INTRODUCTION Kidney transplantation from deceased donor has progressively increased in Iran; however, there are limited published data on its outcome. We evaluated the short-term outcome of kidney transplants using deceased donors in Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 121 adult patients who received a kidney allograft from a deceased donor in Baqiyatallah Transplant Center were enrolled. ...
متن کاملJustification for living donor kidney transplantation
From the perspective of a potential kidney transplant recipient: • Kidney transplantation using either live or deceased donors is worthwhile for an individual with renal failure if it significantly improves their quality of life and/or long term survival. • The potential benefit of live donor transplantation needs to be weighed up against the likely outcome with the alternative options. For the...

Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is one of the main causes of delay graft function (DGF) in deceased-donor kidney transplantation (DDKT). Evidences suggest that hypertonic saline (HS) has beneficial effects on IRI. The objective of the present study is to determine the effect of intraoperative HS, on graft function and urinary biomarkers of interleukin 18 (IL-18) and neutrophil gelatinase-asso...

متن کاملPredictive Values of Urinary Interleukin 18 and Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin for Delayed Graft Function Diagnosis in Kidney Transplantation
Background: Delayed graft function is a main complication after deceased donor kidney transplantation that adversely affects graft outcome. Difficulties in prediction and early detection of delayed graft function have hindered the ability to perform proper therapeutic interventions. We investigated whether measuring urinary interleukin 18 and neutrophi...
