Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy in the elderly patient.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To evaluate retrospectively the outcome of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy in patients aged 65 years or older, because data regarding tolerance profile and renal allograft outcome of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy in the elderly patient are lacking. METHODS:Since February 1995, 6 patients aged 65 years or older underwent laparoscopic donor nephrectomy for living-related renal transplantation. Patient demographic, intraoperative, and postoperative parameters, as well as renal allograft outcome, were evaluated. RESULTS:The median donor age was 69.5 years (range 65 to 74), and the median American Society of Anesthesiologists score was 2 (range 2 to 3). The median operative time was 240 minutes (range 183 to 298), with a median blood loss of 300 mL (range 150 to 400). No intraoperative complications or open conversions occurred. Postoperatively, the median time to resumption of oral intake was 1 day (range 1 to 3), and the median hospital stay was 3 days (range 2 to 4). The median narcotic analgesic requirement was 17 mg (range 11 to 27) morphine sulfate equivalent, and the median convalescence was 2 weeks (range 1 to 4). The 1-year renal allograft survival was 100% (n = 6). CONCLUSIONS:Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy is well tolerated by the elderly patient and provides satisfactory patient and renal allograft outcome. Although our sample size was small, it appears that laparoscopy is an acceptable modality for renal donation in the elderly population.
