Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Living-donor kidney transplantation is not only associated to prognosis of recipients, but also donors' healthy. Complete medical and psychological assessment should be performed prior to transplantation to ensure the safety of donors. OBJECTIVE: To analyze and summarize the assessment experience of living-relative kidney donors prior to transplantation. METHODS: Totally 77 cases of living-relative kidney donors admitted at Organ Transplantation Center, Second Affiliated Hospital of General Hospital of Chinese PLA between January 2006 and March 2008 were reviewed. Among them, the analysis was carried out respectively according to the live donor nephrectomy guide of the United Kingdom (2005 Edition) before January 20, 2008, and live donor kidney transplantation consensus Boao meeting after January 20, 2008. In common practice, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular system, infectious disease study, age, obesity, proteinuria, renal artery, renal function, receptor for HLA typing and medical ethics, were systematically evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Of the 77 cases of assessed patients, 69 were qualified, successful donors, and completely cured, without complications. Totally 8 cases of non-donors were due to: 2 cases for hypertension combined with end organ damage; 2 for diabetes mellitus; 1 confirmed malignant tumor in kidney-donated surgery; 1 in the activity period of hepatitis B; 1 for resistance from his wife with medical ethics. The average age of donors was 45.3 years old, including and 7 cases above 60 years old, 24 of 50-59 years old, 29 of 30-49 years old, and 9 below 30 years old. There were 39 cases of parent child donation, 1 child parent donation, 19 siblings donation, 7 cases of three generations of collateral serum, and 3 cases of donation between husband and wife. Of successful donors, blood pressure was above 140/90 in 8 cases; Successful donors were without symptoms of myocardial ischemia but 14 cases had consciously ECG ST-T changes; 3 cases had abnormal fasting blood glucose. The successful donors' body mass index (BMI) reached the average of 23.05 kg/m~2, were below 30 kg/m~2; In assessment of infectious diseases, 3 cases were hepatitis B HBs and HBc-positive in a non-activity period, and the antibody titers were below 500 IU/L. In renography, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was assessed to average (137.3±28.5) mL/min, and no significant statistical difference emerged (P < 0.05). Vascular three-dimensional CT prompted many left renal artery root in 3 cases, accounting for 4% in successful donors, 1 case did not match, accounting for 1%. It demonstrated that the primary purpose of assessment of -living-donor renal transplantation is to ensure that the adaptability, safety and health of donors. In order to avoid the omission of important medical information and unnecessary invasive inspection, as well as reducing the fees of medical assessment, the assessment should be based on the familiar, universally recognized, clinical evidence-based and reasonable procedures and the flexible assessment process.
