Abstract
This Guide for Living Donor Kidney Transplantation (LDKT) has been prepared with the sponsorship of the Spanish Society of Nephrology (SEN), the Spanish Transplant Society (SET), and the Spanish National Transplant Organization (ONT). It updates evidence to offer the best chronic renal failure treatment when a potential living donor is available. The core aim of this Guide is to supply clinicians who evaluate living donors and transplant recipients with the best decision-making tools, to optimise their outcomes. Moreover, the role of living donors in the current KT context should recover the level of importance it had until recently. To this end the new forms of incompatible HLA and/or ABO donation, as well as the paired donation which is possible in several hospitals with experience in LDKT, offer additional ways to treat renal patients with an incompatible donor. Good results in terms of patient and graft survival have expanded the range of circumstances under which living renal donors are accepted. Older donors are now accepted, as are others with factors that affect the decision, such as a borderline clinical history or alterations, which when evaluated may lead to an additional number of transplantations. This Guide does not forget that LDKT may lead to risk for the donor. Pre-donation evaluation has to centre on the problems which may arise over the short or long-term, and these have to be described to the potential donor so that they are able take them into account. Experience over recent years has led to progress in risk analysis, to protect donors' health. This aspect always has to be taken into account by LDKT programmes when evaluating potential donors. Finally, this Guide has been designed to aid decision-making, with recommendations and suggestions when uncertainties arise in pre-donation studies. Its overarching aim is to ensure that informed consent is based on high quality studies and information supplied to donors and recipients, offering the strongest possible guarantees.

Outcome of ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation using a modified desensitization protocol without plasmapheresis. Int J Urol 2022; 29:1017-1025. [PMID: 35661428 DOI: 10.1111/iju.14944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Several controversies regarding desensitization strategies for successful ABO-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation still exist. This study aimed to investigate whether pretransplant anti-A/B antibody removal is mandatory in an ABOi kidney transplant recipient with low baseline isoagglutinin titers. METHODS We adopted a modified desensitization protocol with two doses of rituximab (RTX, 100 mg/body) without pretransplant antibody removal for ABOi kidney transplant recipients with a titer of ≤1:64 (group A; n = 35) and investigated the feasibility of this protocol by comparing it with the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing standard pretransplant plasmapheresis (group B; n = 21). RESULTS There was no significant difference in the rate of antibody-mediated rejection within the first month after transplantation between the two groups (11.4% in group A vs. 2% in group B, p = 0.6019). Moreover, no differences were observed in the short- and long-term graft outcomes between the groups. However, two major critical acute antibody-mediated events occurred in group A; one patient lost the graft due to hyperacute rejection, and the other patient developed thrombotic microangiopathy after surgery. Risk factors predicting these perioperative complications were not identified. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that not only B-cell depletion using RTX but also pretransplant antibody removal is still recommended even for patients with low isoagglutinin titers. In addition, a new diagnostic tool is needed for accurate risk stratification.
