Abstrakt: Chronic kidney disease among liver transplant recipients is common and associated with an increased mortality risk. Several risk factors and causes for the development of chronic kidney disease have been identified. They can be divided into perioperative factors, such as unresolved acute kidney injury; donor-related factors, such as the use of extended criteria liver allografts; and recipient-related factors, such as the use of calcineurin inhibitors and the presence of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and obesity. There is a bimodal progression, more prominent during the initial post-transplant months, followed by a gradual but progressive decline over the subsequent years. Management strategies to prevent and treat chronic kidney disease in the general population can be reasonably applied to the liver transplant population and include addressing comorbidities such as hypertension and diabetes. Strategies to minimize or withdraw calcineurin inhibitors from the immunosuppressive regimen can slow progression of kidney dysfunction. Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease should be considered for kidney transplantation due to its survival advantage. Allocation policy in the United States confers safety-net allocation priority for liver transplant recipients who develop advanced chronic kidney disease within the first year of liver transplantation.
