Abstract:
Objective To analyze the outcomes of renal transplantation from donation after citizen death (DCD) in our single center.Method We retrospectively investigated the recipient outcomes of renal allografts from DCD.Between November 2010 and 31st December 2014,our institution performed 242 renal transplants from DCD.Outcome variables (survival of recipients/allografts and adverse events) and characteristics of marginal donor transplants were analyzed.Result There were 139 males and 44 females in the enrolled 183 donors,and the range of age was from 2 days to 68 years.183 donors included 102 cases of donation after brain death (category Ⅰ),22 cases of donation after circulatory death (category Ⅱ) and 59 cases of donation after brain death followed by circulatory death (category Ⅲ).Utilizing these renal allografts,we performed 242 kidney transplantations including 237 single kidney transplants and 5 pediatric en bloc kidney transplants.The age of recipients ranged from 12 to 64 years.The data indicated that the 1-year recipient/allograft survival rate was 93.8％ and 90.5％,respectively.The rate of delayed graft function (DGF) was 33.1 ％,higher than that from executed prisoners allografts (23.6％,P＜0.05).However,the rate of 1-year acute rejection,interstitial pneumonia and the other adverse events (urinary fistula,ureteral obstruction and cardiac and cerebral vascular accident,etc.) was similar to that from executed prisoners allografts.In addition,good results from pediatric and elder donor renal transplantation were shown in our data,even though the discard rate of elder donor kidney was high.Conclusion By comprehensive evaluation,strictly screening donors and enhancing the rnanagenent of donors,the long-term survival of recipients may be prolonged and the incidence of DGF and primary graft non-function (PNF) may be decreased.The marginal donors from pediatric and elder DCD donors could be utilized in clinical transplantation safely and effectively as long as reasonable evaluation was carried out.
