Abstract:
Objective To observe the curative effectiveness of kidney transplantation on uremic patients complicated with Thalassemia.Methods Forty-six cases of uremic patients complicated with Thalassemia(26 cases of alpha-thalassemia,20 cases of beta-thalassemia)subject to kidney transplan- tation were retrospectively studied as the anemia group.Incidence of delayed graft function restoration, rejection(hyperacute rejection,accelerated rejection and acute rejection)and anemia correction were observed.Time needed for renal function restoration was recorded and creatinine value(Cr)was mea- sured in those patients whose kidney function restored after kidney transplantation.Control group in- cluded 131 cases of kidney transplantation performed concurrently that accompanied with different con- tent of anemia other than thalassemia.Results Incidence of DGF was 26.1% and 23.7% in thalasse- mia group and control group,respectively.Six months after transplantation,39 cases in thalassemia group and 109 cases in control group with follow-up were host and kidney alive.In 6 months,rejection ratio was 30.8% in thalassemia group and 32.1% in control group respectively.Cr value was(121?20)?mol/L and(128?33)?mol/L in thalassemia group and control group,respectively.Ratio of anemia correction in thalassmia and control groups was 79.5% and 76.1%,respectively.No indexes above were found to be statically significantly different between these two groups.Conclusion Uremic patients complicated with thalassemia is suitable for kidney transplantation,with clinical effectiveness similar to those without thalassemia.
