AB0-incompatible living donor kidney transplantation: the long-term outcomes ; Несовместимые по группе крови родственные трансплантации почки: отдаленные результаты

Background: AB0-incompatible kidney transplantation is one of the ways to effectively expand the pool of living donors. In Russia, this technology has been used for more than 10 years, but until now there have been no reports on its long-term results. Aim: To evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of the living-related AB0-incompatible kidney transplantations. Materials and methods: We analyzed the results of 49 consecutive AB0-incompatible kidney transplantations, performed from 2011 to 2017. Preoperative management of recipients included administration of rituximab and intravenous immunoglobulin, plasmapheresis and/or selective immunoadsorption, and combination of tacrolimus, mycophenolates and steroids. The target of anti-A/B antibody levels were is 1:8. All patients received standard immunosuppression after transplantation. Results: At baseline, median anti-A/B titer was 1:16 (1:2 to 1:1024) for IgM and 1:4 (0 to 1:512) for IgG. Median rituximab dose was 286 mg/m2 (range, from 94 to 396). To achieve target antibody levels, up to 10 plasmapheresis and/or immunoadsorption sessions (median, 2) were required. There were no deaths during the follow-up. Five grafts were lost, one of them due to hyperacute rejection. The incidence of biopsy-proven rejection was 6%. One-, three and six-year graft survival was 94%, 90% and 80%, respectively. Conclusion: Kidney transplantation across the AB0-incompatibility barrier is a safe, successful and reasonable option to reduce the organ shortage. ; Актуальность. Трансплантация почки от несовместимого по группе крови родственного донора – один из способов эффективного использования ресурса прижизненного донорства. В России данная технология применяется более 10 лет, однако сообщения об отдаленных результатах трансплантаций в настоящее время отсутствуют. Цель – изучить непосредственные и отдаленные результаты AB0-несовместимых трансплантаций почки от родственного донора. Материал и методы. Проанализированы результаты 49 последовательно выполненных AB0-несовместимых ...
