Abstract:
:Whereas neutropenia is common after solid-organ transplantation, graft-vs-host disease is unusual, especially after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Most cases reported in the literature give few details of treatment approach, and all were fatal. A 45-year-old man with diabetes underwent simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation at our center, with organs from a female donor. Two weeks postoperatively, he was readmitted with fever, malaise, and neutropenia. A bone marrow biopsy specimen demonstrated that two-thirds of the lymphocytes were of female karyotype. Graft-vs-host disease was diagnosed. Aggressive immunosuppression therapy was administered; however, the patient died. To our knowledge, this is the first case report with specific details of a treatment protocol and sequential short tandem repeat data.
