摘要
En bloc kidney transplantation (EBKT) to adults from preterm neonates following donation after circulatory death has not been described in the literature. We report 2 successful cases of EBKT from preterm neonatal donation after circulatory death donors weighing <1.2 kg to adult recipients. The first case was a preterm female infant born at 29 weeks' gestational age, weighing 1.07 kg. The recipient was a 34-year-old woman weighing 75 kg. At the 9-month follow-up, the patient demonstrated excellent graft function with a creatinine concentration of 1.48 mg/dL. The second donor was a preterm female infant born at 29 weeks and 5 days' gestation, weighing 1.17 kg. The recipient was a 25-year-old woman weighing 46 kg. By 5 months post surgery, the serum creatinine level had gradually decreased to 1.47 mg/dL. In our experience, EBKT from preterm neonates <30 weeks' gestation and weighing <1.2 kg has demonstrated acceptable short- to medium-term results.
