Background. Despite great efforts to promote the donation of cadaveric organs, the number of organ transplantations in Japan is not increasing and a serious shortage of cadaveric organs exists. These circumstances have forced a widening of indications for kidney transplantation. For this purpose, ABO-incompatible living kidney transplantations (LKTs) have been performed. Although we have already reported the short-term results of ABO-incompatible LKT, there is no report of long-term results in such cases; anti-A and anti-B antibodies could cause antibody-induced chronic rejection and result in poor long-term graft survival. In this study, we have reviewed the long-term results of ABO-incompatible LKT and tried to identify the most important factors for long-term renal function in ABO-incompatible LKT. Methods. Sixty-seven patients with end-stage renal failure underwent ABO-incompatible living kidney transplantation at our institute between January, 1989, and December, 1995. The mean age was 34.9 years (range, 8-58 years), with 38 males and 29 females. Incompatibility in ABO blood group antigens was as follows: A1 |
