Слайд 4Diabetic nephropathy accounts for 40% of the diseases resulting in

renal transplantation. This subgroup of pts are also more prone

to complications after renal transplantation.
The spectrum of diseases in transplant pts is different from the general population.
The classical presentation of common medical disorders may be modified by immunosuppressive medication.

Слайд 5The Transplantation Process
Transplant coordinators should be called early for any

pt who may meet brain death criteria in the new

future.
Absolute C/Is for organ donation include HIV, sepsis, non-CNS malignancy and severe CVS disease.
Age is also a relative C/I (i.e. organs not harvested from pts >75 years of age).
The pretransplantation workup of a potential donor includes testing for CMV, HSV, EBV, HIV, Hep A, B, C, D + E and HTLV type 1.
The Transplantation ProcessTransplant coordinators should be called early for any pt who may meet brain death criteria

Слайд 6Following brain death, a number of physiological changes occur that

need to be rectified if donor organ perfusion is to

be preserved.
Increased cerebral oedema after trauma or stroke results in catecholamine release and HT.
With brainstem necrosis, catecholamine levels drop rapidly resulting in hypotension. This should be corrected with fluid and vasopressors.
Following brain death, a number of physiological changes occur that need to be rectified if donor organ

pituitary necrosis and this leads to hypovolaemia.
Systemic thermal control is

often lost due to hypothalamic ischaemia which results in coagulopathy, hepatic dysfunction and cardiac dysfuction.

Слайд 10The transplant renal a is anastomosed to the ipsilateral internal

or external iliac a, the renal v to internal or

external iliac v and the transplant ureter to the bladder.
Generally a single kidney is transplanted.
When small, paediatric or older cadaveric donor kidneys with age-related loss of renal fxn are transplanted, both kidneys from the donor might be placed in a single recipient to provide adequate fxnal renal mass.
The transplant renal a is anastomosed to the ipsilateral internal or external iliac a, the renal v

Слайд 21Immunosuppressive Therapy
Renal transplant pts require lifelong immunosuppression to prevent rejection.
Current

“triple” regimes include cyclosporine-microemulsion or tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil or azathiopine

and corticosteroids.
Sicrolimus became available in 1994 and has become incorporated into protocols.

Слайд 22Cyclosporine: inhibits both cellular and humoral immunity by binding to

cyclophilins which block cytokine transcription and production resulting in the

inhibition of lymphocyte signal transduction.
Results in potent immunosuppression of helper T cells, without affecting suppressor T cells.
Cyclosporine: inhibits both cellular and humoral immunity by binding to cyclophilins which block cytokine transcription and production

Слайд 23Azathioprine: antimetabolite derivative of 6-mercatopurine. Inhibits DNA + RNA synthesis,

resulting in suppression of lymphocyte proliferation.
Corticosteroids: wide range of effects

on immune system specifically the T lymphocytes. Because of long-term toxic effects, every effort is made to minimise the dosage of glucocorticoids.

Слайд 25Immunosuppressant minimisation protocols are becoming more popular.
Triple Rx for 3-12

months after transplantation followed by withdrawal of 1 of the

3 drugs to minimise long term side effects (most commonly withdrawn drug is corticosteroid).
Antilymphocyte Abs are also widely used in the pts (polyclonal & monoclonal Abs are available).

Слайд 30Surgical Complications affecting Allografts
Usual postop generic complications: atelectasis, pneumonia, wound

infection, ileus, bleeding and venous thromboembolism.
1. Acute occlusion of transplant

renal a or v.
Occurs in first transplant week (0.5-8%). Causes oligoanuria and ARF. With renal vein thrombosis, there is graft tenderness, dark haematuria and decreased urine volume.
Diagnosis is via doppler U/S or radioisotope scanning to demonstrate lack of blood flow.
Rx is surgery.

of perioperative anticoagulation (2-3%)
Severe pain over allograft, decreased

Hb or Hct, increased serum creatinine.
Recurrent increased K due to lysis of RBC in haematoma.
Diagnosis via CT.

Слайд 323. Urinary Leak
First transplant month. (2-5%)
Presents

with urine extravasation and ARF, fever, pain and distended abdomen.

Diagnosis is via U/S which demonstrates a peritransplant fluid collection or via radioisotope scanning.
Treatment is foley catheter insertion and surgery.
3. Urinary Leak  First transplant month. (2-5%)  Presents with urine extravasation and ARF, fever, pain

Слайд 334. Lymphocoele
Occurs within the first 3 post transplant

months and is due to lymph leaking from severed lymphatics

(5-15%).
Large collections cause pain, ARF, urinary frequency, ipsilateral lower extremity oedema, occasionally iliac vein thrombosis or PE. Most of the s&s are due to pressure effects.
Diagnosis is via U/S.
Treatment is percutaneous drainage.
4. Lymphocoele  Occurs within the first 3 post transplant months and is due to lymph leaking

Слайд 345. Obstructive Uropathy
Occurs in early post transplant period

(3-6%). The commonest causes are extrinsic compression of the ureter

by a lymphocoele or due to a technical problem with the ureteric anastomosis to the bladder.
Diagnosis is best achieved via U/S demonstrating hydronephrosis.
Treatment is surgical.
5. Obstructive Uropathy  Occurs in early post transplant period (3-6%). The commonest causes are extrinsic compression

Слайд 356. Renal artery stenosis

Слайд 43Cardiovascular disorders
The risk of CVS disease is increased 3 to

5 fold in kidney transplant recipients compared to the general

population.
Atherosclerotic vascular disease accounts for 30-50% of deaths after the first post transplant year.
Diltiazem, Verapamil + Amiodarone inhibit hepatic cytochrome p450 enzyme system resulting in elevated levels + possible toxicity of cyclosporine, tracrolimus and sirolimus.

Слайд 56Malignancy
Transplant recipients are at significantly higher risk for cancers than

the general population because of (1) chronic immunosuppression, (2) chronic

antigenic stimulation, (3) increased susceptibility to oncogenic viral infections, and (4) direct neoplastic action of immunosuppressants. Transplant recipients have a significant overall 2-5 fold higher risk in both sexes for cancers of the colon, larynx, lung, and bladder and in men for cancers of the prostate and testis.

Слайд 57Stress-dose Corticosteroid Coverage
Severely ill renal transplant pts presenting to ED

will require stress-dose corticosteroid coverage (hydrocortisone 50-100 mg IV 6-8

hrly) to avoid acute adrenal insufficiency, unless the pt has not been receiving corticosteroids for > 6-12 months.

Слайд 58Acute Rejection
Indirect pathway: soluble donor Ag that is processed by

recipient APC + then presented to recipient T-cells in the

groves of MHC I + II molecules.
Direct pathway: donor APC presenting both class I + class II epitopes to recipient T cells.
Hyperacute rejection occurs immediately in the operating room, when the graft becomes mottled and cyanotic. This type of rejection is due to unrecognised compatibility of blood groups A, AB, B, and O (ABO) or a positive T-cell crossmatch.

Acute RejectionIndirect pathway: soluble donor Ag that is processed by recipient APC + then presented to recipient

Слайд 59Acute rejection appears within the first 3 posttransplant months and

affects 30% of cadaveric transplants and 27% of transplants from

living donors. Approximately 20% of patients with transplants experience recurrent rejection episodes. Patients present with decreasing urine output, hypertension, rising creatinine, and mild leukocytosis. Fever, graft swelling, pain, and tenderness may be observed with severe rejection episodes.
The final diagnosis depends upon a graft biopsy.
