ABSTRACT
Background:
ABO-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation poses significant challenges in achieving successful outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the impact of various interventions and techniques on improving the success rates of ABOi kidney transplantation.Methods:
We conducted a retrospective observational analysis of patients who underwent ABOi kidney transplantation from November 2012 to March 2023. The study included a total of 105 patients. We collected and analyzed data on patient demographics, preoperative assessments, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes.Results:
The mean ages of the donors and recipients were 50.52±10.32 and 36.63±11.61 years, respectively. The majority of recipients were male (81.9%), while most donors were female (89.5%). The most common blood group among recipients was O (69.5%), and among donors, it was B (46.7%). The median durations of chronic kidney disease and dialysis were 12 months (interquartile range [IQR], 7-28 months) and 6 months (IQR, 2-12 months), respectively. Baseline antibody titers (anti-A and anti-B) ranged from 64.0 to 256.0, while on the day of surgery, they were ≤8. Perioperative complications included hypotension (10.5%), acute tubular necrosis (5.7%), delayed graft function (3.8%), and reexploration (3.8%) due to hematoma.Conclusions:
ABOi kidney transplantation is a viable option for recipients lacking available donors with an ABO-compatible match. Perioperative concerns, including hypoalbuminemia, heightened risk of infections, coagulopathies, aseptic precautions, and immunological surveillance, must be carefully addressed.
