ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the short-term outcomes of dual kidney transplantation and summarize its safety and feasibility.Methods:
From September 2018 to September 2019, a total of 7 dual kidney transplantations were performed. And retrospective analysis was performed for baseline profiles, clinical data and postoperative complications.Results:
The mean age was (62.7±8.5) years for donors and (43.9±9.3) years for recipients. The Remuzzi score of 6 paired kidneys ranged from 4 to 6 points. During follow-ups, the survival rate of 7 dual kidney transplantation grafts and recipients was 100%. The median follow-up period was 16 months. Renal function of 6 recipients normalized within 1 week and delayed graft function (DGF) occurred in one case. All of them underwent unilateral kidney transplantation with an average operative duration of (5.6±1.4) hours. There was no onset of operative complications. One case of rejection was not confirmed by biopsy. Among three patients of lung infections, there was one case of severe pneumonia. In 3 cases, lateral plasma flow of transplanted kidney exceeded that of medial plasma flow.Conclusions:
Dual kidney transplantation in adults is both safe and feasible so as to expand the availability of donated kidney.
