Abstract:
Objective To study the preoperative treatment and prognosis observation? in sensitized recipients of kidney transplantation.Method Forty-one recipients positive for preoperative PRA accepted renal allograft transplantation from January 2007 to July 2012.All recipients were given immunosuppressant or immune induction by anti-CD25rnAb in advance,and plasma exchange,immunoadsorption and intravenous high-dose immune globulin were administered.Meanwhile,donor HLA antigens had to avoid all stored HLA antibodies of the recipient,and lymphocyte cytotoxicity cross test (CDC) had to be negative.Anti-human lymphocyte globulin (ATG) was used to strengthen the immune induction,and tacrolimus + mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) + corticosteroids triple immunosuppressive regimen was adopted after transplantation.Then intravenous micafungin would be given after transplanted kidney function was normal,and ganciclovir and sulfamethoxazole were taken orally to prevent infection.Result In 41 recipients positive for preoperative PRA,13 cases were positive for only HLA class Ⅰ antibodies,15 cases for only HLA class Ⅱ antibodies,and there existed 13 cases of both HLA class Ⅰ and class Ⅱ antibodies also with PRA≥50%.Fifteen patients achieved normal serum creatinine in one week,and no hyperacute rejection and accelerated rejection occurred.Fourteen recipients experienced an episode of acute rejection (34.15%,14/41): 12 recovered by steroids bolus therapy,and the other two reversed in 3-5 days by cyclophosphamide or ATG treatment.One case died of mycotic pneumonia in 4 months later.One-year recipient/kidney survival rate was 97.6% (40/41).Conclusion The recipients positive for preoperative PRA only can accept renal allograft transplant while the donor's HLA antigens had to avoid all stored HLA antibodies of recipients themselves and CDC test was negative.After that the combination of desensitization therapy,immune induction therapy and postoperative potent immunosuppressant can prevent acute rejection effectively and increase postoperative recipient/kidney survival rate.
