Clinical Outcomes of Kidney Allograft Recipients with Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) Risk Alleles from Living Kidney Donors.
Background:Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) alleles G1 and G2 in deceased donors are associated with poor kidney allograft survival. However, the effect of these alleles in living…2016 American Transplant Congress
Retroperitoneal versus Intraperitoneal Hand Assisted Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy: A Case Matched Study.
Abdominal Transplant Unit, Guy's Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Although hand assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (HALDN) has become a standard of care for living kidney procurement in most centres it is not clear if…2016 American Transplant Congress
Ex-Vivo Normothermic Perfusion for Assessment of High Risk Deceased Donor Kidneys for Transplantation.
Surgery, University of California-Davis, Sacramento, CA.
Despite the organ shortage, many procured deceased donor kidneys are deemed too high risk for failure and discarded. Ex-vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) may be useful…2016 American Transplant Congress
Association Between Delayed Graft Function and Long-Term Outcomes After Kidney Transplantation from Donors After Circulatory Death.
Purpose: Delayed graft function (DGF) is associated with worse long-term outcomes after kidney transplantation from donation after brain death (DBD) donors. We aimed to determine…2016 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes Following Appendectomy in Liver Transplant Recipients.
Surgery, Johns Hopkins, Baltimore.
Studies on outcomes following appendectomy in liver transplant (LT) recipients have been limited to case series. This study investigates early postoperative outcomes following laparoscopic (lap)…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Use of Perioperative Lactate Values as Markers for Adverse Outcomes in Liver Transplantation.
Introduction:We examined the utility of perioperative lactate values for the prediction of multiple post-transplant outcomes including length of hospital stay (LOS), acute cellular rejection (ACR),…2016 American Transplant Congress
Robotic Kidney Transplantation in Obese Recipients Can Lead to Superior Outcomes in Terms of Wound Infection and Graft Survival – 48 Months of Follow-up.
Surgery, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL.
Introduction: Traditionally kidney transplantation (KT) in obese recipients has been associated with high rates of surgical site infections (SSI). We hypothesize that robotic kidney transplantation…2016 American Transplant Congress
Universal Stenting of Renal Transplants Associated with a Low Complication Rate When Quality Assurance Program Ensures Stent Removal.
Urology, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO.
Introduction: The routine use of ureteral stents during renal transplantation remains controversial despite recent evidence that universal stenting decreases ureteric complications. Further, assurance of timely…2016 American Transplant Congress
Outcome After Kidney Transplant (KTx) in Patients with Chronic Hypotension on Haemodialysis (HD).
5% of the HD population have chronic hypotension ( hypotension in the absence of volume depletion, antihypertensive medication, heart failure or cortisol deficiency). The perioperative…2016 American Transplant Congress
Down-Regulated of Circulating miR-29b, miR-185 and NR_073415.2 in Post-Transplanted Patients with Cytomegalovirus Infection May Serve as Novel Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis.
Aims: Mortality of CMV infection in post-transplanted patients was quite high, which severely influencing the long-term survival of recipients. For giving them early treatment and…
