RESUMO

Ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) is an established method for the treatment of high- and lowposition anal fistulas. Numerous meta-analyses confirm the high healing success rate with simultaneous low risk of sphincter damage. The aim of the study was to evaluate the results of the treatment of patients with high-position and complex transsphincteric fistulas using the LIFT procedure. Twelve patients (M - 9, F - 3) aged between 28 and 69 years (median age 50) undergoing surgery for complex and high-position transsphincteric anal fistulas, either primary or recurrent, in the period of 2016 to 2020, were included in the study. The inclusion criterion consisted in the presence of a fistula encompassing more than 30% of the anal sphincter volume as confirmed by transrectal ultrasound. All patients were subjected to surgical treatment by means of the LIFT procedure. The follow-up period was between 6 and 51 months (average of 16 months). Follow-up visits were held at 1 and 4 weeks as well as 6 months after surgery. During the postoperative period, data were collected on the curative effect or recurrence of transsphincteric fistulas (the primary endpoint) and on the presence of postoperative complications (the secondary endpoint). A total of 10 patients (83.3%) were healed, with 2 patients (16.7%) experiencing complications as manifested by recurring intersphincteric fistula. Full recurrence of the disease was observed in 2 patients (16.7%). Slight disturbances of continence were observed in 2 out of 12 patients (16.7%).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: There are many doubts with regards to accepting deceased kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) for transplantation. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to present the 5-years outcome of kidney transplantation cases where deceased donors developed AKI before organ procurement. METHODS: Two hundred twenty-six deceased renal transplants were analyzed. Data regarding donors and recipients were collected. Terminal AKI was defined as terminal serum creatinine concentration higher than 1.99 mg/dL and 66 such cases were diagnosed. All kidney transplant recipients were followed for 60 months. RESULTS: AKI group presented more episodes of delayed graft function (DGF) compared to the non-AKI group (56% vs 35%, p < .05). No differences were observed between the groups in the rate of acute rejection episodes, kidney function as well as patient and graft survival. CONCLUSIONS: Transplants with AKI present more often DGF and comparable graft survival to transplants without AKI. Kidneys with AKI can be a valuable source of organs provided attentive selection and appropriate care of deceased donors.

RESUMO

One of the most important problems in transplantation medicine is the ischemia/reperfusion injury of the organs to be transplanted. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitor etanercept on the machine perfusion hypothermia of renal allograft kidney function and organ perfusion. No statistically significant differences were found in the impact of the applied intervention on kidney machine perfusion during which the average flow and vascular resistance were evaluated. There were no statistically significant differences in the occurrence of delayed graft function (DGF). Fewer events in patients who received a kidney from the etanercept treated Group A compared to the patients who received a kidney from the control Group B were observed when comparing the functional DGF and occurrence of acute rejection episodes, however, there was no statistically significant difference. In summary, no effect of treatment with etanercept an inhibitor of TNF-alpha in a hypothermic machine perfusion on renal allograft renal survival and its perfusion were detected in this study. However, treatment of the isolated organ may be important for the future of transplantation medicine.

RESUMO

CONTEXT: Machine perfusion improves graft survival. Histopathologic analysis reveals a lower incidence of chronic rejection and interstitial fibrosis in kidneys preserved with machine perfusion. Ischemic/reperfusion injury may help to explain these findings. OBJECTIVE: To assess the activation of genes correlated with ischemic/reperfusion injury in kidneys preserved under different conditions before transplant. DESIGN/PATIENTS: Between 2005 and 2006, 69 kidney biopsy specimens were collected and patients were followed up for 5 years after that.Intervention-Before transplant, kidneys were preserved with machine perfusion or cold storage. Donors from the machine perfusion and cold storage groups did not differ with regard to age, sex, or hemodynamic status. Recipients were divided into 5 groups: expanded criteria donor-machine perfusion (n = 16), standard criteria donor-machine perfusion (n = 10), expanded criteria donor-cold storage (n = 9), and standard criteria donor-cold storage (n = 27); 7 kidneys were retrieved from living related donors. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Biopsies were done 30 minutes after reperfusion. Interleukin-1ß, vascular endothelial growth factor, heme oxygenase-1, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 gene expression levels were analyzed. RESULTS: Mean expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α were significantly higher in the cold storage groups, and lower in the machine perfusion and living-related donor groups. Five-year graft survival was significantly (P< .05) lower in the expanded criteria donor-cold storage group (66%) than in the standard criteria donor-machine perfusion group (90%). Machine perfusion influences gene expression related to hypoxia during reperfusion and may improve the long-term results of kidney transplant.

RESUMO

Studies have shown beneficial effects of machine perfusion (MP) on early kidney function and long-term graft survival. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the type of perfusion device could affect outcome of transplantation of deceased donor kidneys. A total of 50 kidneys retrieved from 25 donors were randomized to machine perfusion using a flow-driven (FD) device (RM3; Waters Medical Inc) or a pressure-driven (PD) device (LifePort; Organ Recovery Systems), 24 of these kidneys (n = 12 pairs; 48%) were procured from expanded criteria donors (ECD). The primary endpoints were kidney function after transplantation defined using the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF), the number of hemodialysis sessions required, graft function at 12 months, and analyses of biopsy. DGF was similar in both groups (32%; 8/25). Patients with DGF in the FD group required a mean of 4.66 hemodialysis sessions versus 2.65 in the PD group (P = 0.005). Overall, 1-year graft survival was 80% (20/25) vs. 96% (24/25) in the FD and PD groups. One-year graft survival of ECD kidneys was 66% (8/12) in the FD group versus 92% (11/12) in the PD group. Interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy were significantly more common in the FD group - 45% (5/11) vs. 0% (0/9) (P = 0.03) in PD group. There were no differences in creatinine levels between the groups. Machine perfusion using a pressure-driven device generating lower pulse stress is superior to a flow-driven device with higher pulse stress for preserving kidney function.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Kidney transplantation (KTx) is a widely accepted method of renal function replacement therapy. Surgical site infections (SSIs), along with urinary tract infections, are among the most common infective complications after KTx. The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of SSI in patients after KTx, identify risk factors for SSI, and classify patients in which standard antibiotic prophylaxis could be avoided. METHODS: Between January 2010 and December 2011, 262 KTxs were performed in our center. Deceased donors', recipients' data, and data related to surgical procedures were collected. SSIs were diagnosed in accordance with the guidelines published by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. RESULTS: SSIs were diagnosed in 7.25% (19/262) of patients. Of nineteen SSI patients, two (10.5%) were diagnosed with organ-specific SSIs, which eventually led to graft loss; six (31.5%) developed deep incisional SSIs; and eleven (58%) developed superficial incisional SSIs. Through analysis of this extensive data set, we determined the following risk factors for the development of SSI: kidney from extended criteria donors, a cold ischemia time of more than 30 hr, time of surgical procedure longer than 200 min, confirmed diabetes in the recipients, a recipient body mass index higher than 27 kg/m, and occurrence of delayed graft function. CONCLUSIONS: It may be possible to reduce standard antibiotic prophylaxis to a single dose in patients without known risk factors for SSI. Any opportunity to reduce antibiotic use is crucial in preventing the development of multi-drug-resistant pathogens.

RESUMO

Few reports describing the use of organs donated by transplant recipients have been published. In this case report, kidneys procured from a brain-dead liver recipient were transplanted successfully. A 21-year-old man was referred for liver transplant after an overdose of acetaminophen. The patient's kidney function was initially normal, with proper urine production and normal kidney laboratory parameters. On the third day after admission, the patient's kidney laboratory parameters became elevated and hepatic encephalopathy requiring mechanical ventilation developed. An orthotopic liver transplant was performed the next day. The patient did not recover consciousness, and brain death was diagnosed on the third day after the liver transplant surgery. The maximum serum concentration of creatinine was 5.8 mg/dL (513 µmol/L) before kidney recovery, and urine production was normal. The kidneys were recovered with organ-perfusion support and were preserved by using machine perfusion. The kidneys were transplanted into 2 male recipients. Twelve months after transplant, the recipients remained in good health with satisfactory kidney function. This case demonstrates that transplanting kidneys recovered from liver transplant recipients is possible and beneficial, thus expanding the pool of potential donors.
