Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) promote fibrosis in renal allografts by altering the dynamics of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover. Graft structure is changed and functional disturbance may follow. This study examined the effects of an antifibrotic a

Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) and minimal-incision donor nephrectomy (MILD) are less invasive procedures than the traditional open donor nephrectomy approach (ODN). This study compares donor and recipient outcome following those three differen

Peritoneal dialysis is a safe and effective form of renal-replacement therapy. Its use is increasing as the gap widens between the number of patients waiting for renal transplants and the number of available organs. This article reviews the surgical

Modern immunosuppressive agents such as tacrolimus and rapamycin are claimed to be associated with a reduction in vascular narrowing, a central feature of chronic rejection. This study assesses the effect of cyclosporine, tacrolimus and rapamycin on

Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) remains the leading limiting factor of patient and graft survival after the first post-operative year. The pathogenesis involves both immunological and non-immunological factors. Here, we present recent advances a

Background Chronic graft nephropathy (CGN) remains the leading cause of renal allograft loss after the first year following transplantation. Histologically it is characterized by glomerulosclerosis, intimal hyperplasia and interstitial fibrosis. The

Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) has the potential to overcome some of the disincentives to living kidney donation. This study presents the results of a consecutive series of 70 LDN from a single center with an emphasis on postoperative complicat

The combination of cyclosporine (CSA) and rapamycin (RAPA) is a potent and commonly used approach to immunosuppression following solid-organ transplantation. By applying varying doses of CSA and RAPA to the rat salt-depleted model, we aimed to find a

BACKGROUND Pulsatile machine perfusion offers theoretical advantages as a method of preserving kidneys before transplantation. This may be particularly the case for organs taken from non-heart-beating donors (NHBD), but there is still a lack of data
