Eredményeink a teljes jogú Eurotransplant-tagság óta: a Debreceni Vesetranszplantációs Központ tapasztalatai

Introduction: The first renal transplantation was completed in 1991 at the University of Debrecen. In 2013 Hungary joined Eurotransplant. Aim: The authors retrospectively compared the trends. Method: Comparison between Period A (from January 1, 2008 to August 31, 2013) and Period B (from September 1, 2013 to October 22, 2015). Results: The proportion of living transplants rose from 3.5% to 9.1 %. During period B over 25% of utilized donors were over 60 years of age. Recipients with body mass index above 30 kg/m2 increased from 12% to 31%. Prevalence of diabetes among recipients rose twofold. Uretero-neocystostomy was used during period A (99%) while in period B end to side uretero-ureteral anastomosis has also gained popularity (68%). In 2013 the authors introduced routine use of induction treatment. Acute rejection rate decreased from 34% to 8%. The rate of surgical complications did not change. Acute bacterial infections decreased from 41% to 33%. Cumulative renal allograft 1, 3 and 5 year survival rates were 86.6%, 85% and 82.7% in group A vs. projected rates 88%, 84% and 84% in group B, respectively. Conclusions: Despite the growing proportion of expanded criteria donors, the authors were able to maintain a low incidence of delayed graft function and a favorable graft survival. Since 2013 the authors introduced treatments for acute humoral rejection according to international standards. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(24), 925–937.
