[Transplantation of pediatric kidneys into adult patients (author's transl)]. 1982

P Kinnaert, and E Dupont, and P Vereerstraeten, and A Schoutens, and M Verhas, and C Toussaint, and J Van Geertruyden

Fourteen adult patients were transplanted with a single pediatric kidney and were followed for 26 days to 9 years. Donor ages ranged from 22 months to 10 years, recipient ages from 15 to 47 years. Ten transplants functioned for more than one year. Three kidneys were rejected after 26 days, 3 months and 18 months. Three patients died 2, 6 and 13 months after transplantation from aspergillosis, cytomegalovirus infection and salmonellosis. Eight kidney grafts are currently functioning 2 to 9 years after transplantation. Serum creatinin levels range between 0.9 and 1.1 mg/dl in 7 patients. One woman with chronic rejection has a serum creatinin level of 2.5 mg/dl. A single pediatric kidney is able to sustain a satisfactory renal function in an adult recipient.
