Abstract:
BACKGROUND:To maximize the renal donor pool, cadaveric pediatric en bloc kidneys have been transplanted as a dual unit by some transplant centers. We compared the short- and long-term outcomes of adult recipients of cadaveric pediatric en bloc renal transplants versus those of matched recipients of cadaveric adult kidneys. METHODS:Thirty-three adults who received pediatric en bloc kidney transplants between April 1990 and September 1997 were retrospectively identified and were compared with 33 matched adults who received adult cadaveric kidney transplants. The groups were identical for transplantation era, immunosuppression, recipient sex, race, cause of renal failure, mean weight, and follow-up duration (37.8 vs. 37.5 months). The mean recipient age study versus control was lower (36.3 vs. 48.9 years, P=0.0003). Results. There was no difference between the en bloc and adult donor groups in the 3-year patient survival rates (95% vs. 87%, P=0.16) or the 3-year graft survival rates (87.3% vs. 84.2%, P=0.35). Further, there was no difference in en bloc patient or en bloc graft survival time stratified by recipient age (14-44 vs. >45 years, P=0.11), en bloc donor age (<24 vs. >24 months, P=0.39), or recipient weight (<60, 61-75, >75 kg; P=0.60). Differences in serum creatinine (mg/dl) for the en bloc versus the control group at the time of discharge (3.0 vs. 7.8 mg/dl, P=0.06), at 1 year (1.4 vs. 2.0 mg/dl, P=0.06), and at 2 years (1.1 vs. 1.6 mg/dl, P=0.14) had dissipated by the time of the 5-year follow-up examination (1.1 vs. 1.6 mg/dl, P=0.14). Vascular complications were more prevalent in the en bloc group: renal vein thrombosis (one case), thrombosis of donor aorta (two cases), arterial thrombosis of one renal moiety (two cases), and renal artery stenosis (two cases). There were no differences between groups in delayed graft function, acute or chronic rejection, posttransplant hypertension, posttransplant protein-uria, or long-term graft function. CONCLUSIONS:Collectively, these data indicate that transplanting pediatric en bloc kidneys into adult recipients results in equivalent patient and graft survival compared with adult cadaveric kidneys. Further, the data also suggest that pediatric en bloc kidneys need not be strictly allocated based on recipient weight or age criteria.
