| Popis: | In 14 of 204 consecutive cadaveric renal allograft recipients, the primary diagnosis was essential hypertension. Four patients had manifest ischemic heart disease before transplantation. Three of these patients died within 31 months of transplantation from recurrent myocardial infarction, and the fourth experienced coronary insufficiency. Cadaveric renal transplantation does not prevent the progression of coronary artery disease in patients whose renal failure was due to essential hypertension. In the presence of angina or previous myocardial infarction, these patients may be better treated by maintenance hemodialysis. ( JAMA 235:2318-2320, 1976) |
