Abstract:
Objective To analyze clinical outcome of kidney transplantation from elderly livingrelated donors. Methods The clinical data of living-related kidney transplantation between November 2005 to June 2011 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analysed.The patients were divided into elderly donor kidney transplantation group (elderly group,36 cases) and non-elderly living related donor kidney transplantation group (nonelderly group,208 cases).The mean recipients' serum creatinines before and 3 days,7 days,1 month,3 month,6 month,12 month,24 month,36 month after surgery,peri-operation complications,the incidence rate of acute rejection,calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-induced renal toxicity,delayed graft function(DGF),1 year and 3 year recipient/kidney survival were compared respectively between the two groups. Results The serum creatinine levels were higher in elderly group than in non-elderly group at 3 days,7 days,1 month after surgery [(245.2±135.2)μmol/L vs.(185.6±148.4)μmol/L,(150.5±86.8)μmol/L vs.(122.2± 136.8)μmol/L,(140.6±42.5)μmol/L vs.(117.8±33.2)μmol/L,t =84.07,31.90,21.54; all P =0.000].In addition,the incidence rate of CNI induced renal toxicity was higher in the elderly group than in non-elderly group [22.2％(8/36)vs.1.9％(4/208),x2=27.04,P=0.000].Nevertheless,there were no significant differences between the two groups in recipients' serum creatinines before and 3 month,6 month,12 month,24 month,36 month after surgery,in peri-operation complications,the incidence rate of acute rejection,delayed graft function,and in 1 year and 3 year recipient/kidney survival (all P ＞ 0.05). Conclusions With stringent screening and overall assessment of elderly donors,healthy elderly donors should not be barriers to organ donation.Renal toxicity of CNI agents should be carefully monitored in recipients of elderly donor.
