Long wait for cadaveric kidney
Relieves stress on cadaveric donor
supply
Emotional gain to donor
Planning convenience
Donor complications

Infections wound, urine
Kidney failure later
Other AMI, Bowel obstructin
Risk of dying 3 in 10,000
mortality 3 in 10 000
Major post op complications 2%
Minor post op complications 50%
Risk of traumatic injury to single kidney
Minimise risk factors to prevent future
health problems
haematuria

Complications
Tacrolimus
Complications
Interleukin
2 mediated activation of
lymphocytes is a critical factor in the
cellular immune response of acute
kidney transplant rejection
Decreased loss of allograft at 12 months
in pts treated with tacrolimus as opposed
to cyclosporin
to haemodynamic changes on
the afferent arteriole which are dose
dependent and reversible
Chronic calcineurin
nephrotoxicity
Focal
Diltiazem
Antihypertensive
Increases available levels of anti rejection drugs via
the hepatic metabolism pathway
Inhibit the influx of calcium ions during membrane
depolarisation of cardiac and vascular smooth muscle
Produces its antihypertensive effects primarily by
relaxation of vascular smooth muscle and the resultant
decrease in peripheral vascular resistance. The
magnitude of blood pressure reduction is related to the
degree of hypertension

Fever

Tenderness
CMV
Belongs
to a group of herpesviruses
Common
80% adults show seropositivity to
infection
Most common viral infection following
renal transplant
CMV infection detected without
evidence of disease
CMV disease evidence of organ
damage
CMV
Disease
characterised by fever,
mononucleosis, leucopaenia,
thrombocytopaenia
Pneumonitis, hepatitis, encephalitis, focal
gastrointestinal disease
Ganciclovir is the treatment of choice for
disease and should be given IV at least 2
weeks
Alternative is valganciclovir orally 10 times
the bioavailablity
CMV
CMV
CMV
Prophylactic
treatment of CMV is
recommended in solid organ transplant
Oral valaciclovir, oral or Iv ganciclovir or
or valganciclovir all equally effective
Indicated if donor positive and recipient
positive or negative
