ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the indications and results of combined liver-kidney transplantation.Methods From Jan. 2001 to Dec. 2003, 15 patients were subjected to combined liver-kidney transplantation in our department. The underlying diseases included hepatitis B viral cirrhosis complicated by HRS ( n= 8), hepatitis B viral cirrhosis complicated by uremia ( n =2), hepatitis B viral cirrhosis complicated by diabetic nephropathy ( n =1), polycystic liver and kidney disease ( n =2), Caroli's disease and polycystic kidney ( n =1), alcoholic liver cirrhosis complicated by uremia ( n =1). The surgical procedure, perioperative complications, acute and chronic rejection, the recurrence of hepatic viral B hepatitis, and the result of follow-up were analyzed.Results The graft function in 15 cases of combined liver-kidney transplantation was restored well after operation. The 6-month and one-year survival rate was 100%. One patient was supported by respiration machine for 48 days. The complications occurred in 3 patients after operation, including one case of gastroenternal bleeding repeatedly and one case of postoperative wound bleeding subject to non-surgical treatment, and one case of stenosis of biliary anastomosis subject to ERCP. Only one patient experienced a rejection episode of the liver. No acute rejection of the kidney graft occurred. One patient was died from liver graft function failure by recurrence of hepatitis B after 30 months.Conclusions Combined liver-kidney transplantation is only radical treatment method for patients with end-stage liver disease with chronic renal dysfunction or chronic renal failure. In the patients with hepatitis B,lamividine and hepatitis B immunoglobin can prevent the recurrence of hepatitis B.
