Abstract:

The changes in general conditions and auxiliary examination indexes (body mass index,anemia and other auxiliary examination indexes),treatment and prognosis of the patients with chronic diarrhea were recorded. Results Fifteen cases (4.2%) of 353 renal transplant recipients had chronic diarrhea. The time of symptomatic and etiological treatment was (15 ±7 ) d.Two patients died during diarrhea (died from gastrointestinal hemorrhage and sudden death caused by severe hypokalemia respectively)and other patients were recovered.Among the 13 patients,5 cases had good prognosis,2 cases died (both died from pulmonary infection),5 cases suffered from renal allograft dysfunction and 1 case suffered from renal allograft insufficiency during the follow-up.Conclusions The etiology of chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation is complex and the patients should receive symptomatic and etiological treatment.The patients with chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation combined with severe complications have poor prognosis.
