Nevertheless, these early favorable events are not always followed by rapid normalization of parathyroid hormone secretion. A possible deleterious effect of parathyroidectomy on kidney transplant function has been reported. This study aimed to compare acute and long-term renal changes after total parathyroidectomy with those occurring after general surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a retrospective case-controlled study. Nineteen patients with persistent hyperparathyroidism underwent parathyroidectomy due to hypercalcemia. The control group included 19 patients undergoing various general and urological operations. RESULTS: In the parathyroidectomy group, a significant increase in serum creatinine from 1.58 to 2.29 mg/dl (P < 0.05) was noted within the first 5 days after parathyroidectomy. In the control group, a statistically insignificant increase in serum creatinine from 1.49 to 1.65 mg/dl occurred over the same time period. The long-term mean serum creatinine level was not statistically different from baseline either in the parathyroidectomy group (final follow-up creatinine = 1.91 mg/dL) or in the non-parathyroidectomy group (final follow-up creatinine = 1.72 mg/dL). CONCLUSION: Although renal function deteriorates in the acute period following parathyroidectomy, long-term stabilization occurs, with renal function similar to both preoperative function and to a control group of kidney-transplanted patients who underwent other general surgical operations by the final follow up.

conferenceObject Obesity: A Major Risk Factor for Wound and Parietal Complications in Renal Transplantation(2015) ANDRADE, H.; NAHAS, W.; KATO, R.; YAMACAKE, K.; KANASHIRO, H.; ANTONOPOULOS, I.; BULL, A.; FALCI, R.; PIOVESAN, A.- Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae among kidney transplant recipients - insights on the risk of acquisition and CRE infection(2021) FREIRE, Maristela P.; CARVALHO, Laina B.; REUSING JR., Jose Otto; SPADAO, Fernanda; LOPES, Max Igor B. F.; NAHAS, William C.; DAVID-NETO, Elias; PIERROTTI, Ligia C.Background Kidney transplant recipients are a risk group for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection. Objectives This study aimed to identify risk factors for CRE acquisition and infection among kidney transplant recipients. Methods We conducted a case-control study; we defined the case as kidney transplant recipient with positive culture for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae identified between January 2010 and February 2019. Controls were chosen among kidney transplant recipients hospitalized in the same period of cases (1:2). Surveillance culture for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae was performed at admission and weekly during hospital stay. The risk factors analysis for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection was performed among patients colonized by these bacteria. Results We identified 331 patients colonized with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae; The median time from transplantation to first carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae positive culture was 42 days (range from 3 to 7399 days); 125(37.8%) patients developed infection; the most common site was urinary tract. Risk factors for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae acquisition were recipient age >45-year, diabetes nephropathy, donor age >55-year, ureteral stent at kidney transplantation, delay of graft function, median lymphocytes count <800cells/mm(3), and acute cellular rejection. Risk factors for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection were recipient age at CRE acquisition >50-year; median lymphocytes count <= 700 cells/mm(3), carbapenem use, and colonization by polymyxin-resistant strain. Patients colonized by polymyxin and carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae strain who used carbapenem had a 93.8% probability of developing infection by this agent. Conclusion Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae acquisition after kidney transplant is related to graft conditions, immunosuppression degree. Among carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae colonized patients, special attention is needed for those harbouring polymyxin-resistant strains.

conferenceObject IS THE END-TO-SIDE URETEROURETEROSTOMY SAFER THAN END-TO-END URETEROURETEROSTOMY FOR THE TREATMENT OF URINARY COMPLICATIONS FOLLOWING KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION?(2020) SIQUEIRA, Matheus; BERNARDES, Felipe; KANASHIRO, Hideki; ANTONOPOULOS, Ioannis; BULL, Alexandre; NAHAS, Willian; PIOVESAN, Affonso- Percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients with spinal cord injury: should all these patients be automatically assigned a Guy's stone score of 4?(2021) TORRICELLI, Fabio C. M.; VICENTINI, Fabio C.; ZANETTI, Lucas; PERRELLA, Rodrigo; MARCHINI, Giovanni S.; DANILOVIC, Alexandre; BATAGELLO, Carlos A.; MURTA, Claudio B.; CLARO, Joaquim F. A.; SROUGI, Miguel; NAHAS, William C.; MAZZUCCHI, EduardoPurpose To assess the complication and stone-free rates of PCNL in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) and to evaluate whether this population should be assigned a Guy's stone score (GSS) of 4. Methods A case-control study was conducted, and electronic charts were reviewed to search for patients with SCI, bladder dysfunction, and kidney stones who had undergone PCNL. Control cases were randomly selected from among patients with complete staghorn calculus (GSS = 4). Results One hundred and seventeen patients were included. Patients with SCI had a significant shorter operative time (119 vs. 141 min;p = 0.018). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of the patients' position, number of renal tracts, bleeding or transfusion rate; however, there was a significantly higher complication rate (23.1% vs. 7.8%;p = 0.009) and a longer hospital stay (5.8 vs. 3.1 days;p = 0.002) among patients with SCI. With regards to the stone-free rate in patients with different grades of GSS patients with SCI who had a GSS of 1 had a stone-free rate of 85.7%, while those with a GSS of 2, 3, or 4 had 50%, 50%, and 31.5%, respectively (p = 0.024). Only patients with a GSS of 4 in the SCI group had outcomes that were similar to those of control patients (31.5% vs. 31.6%). Conclusion Patients with SCI should not be automatically assigned GSS 4. Stone-free rate is related to stone burden in these patients, although they do show a higher complication rate and a longer hospital stay than non-neurological patients.
- The impact of pretransplant donor-specific antibodies on graft outcome in renal transplantation: a six-year follow-up study(2012) DAVID-NETO, Elias; SOUZA, Patricia Soares; PANAJOTOPOULOS, Nicolas; RODRIGUES, Helcio; VENTURA, Carlucci Gualberto; DAVID, Daisa Silva Ribeiro; LEMOS, Francine Brambate Carvalhinho; AGENA, Fabiana; NAHAS, William Carlos; KALIL, Jorge Elias; CASTRO, Maria Cristina RibeiroOBJECTIVE: The significance of pretransplant, donor-specific antibodies on long-term patient outcomes is a subject of debate. This study evaluated the impact and the presence or absence of donor-specific antibodies after kidney transplantation on short-and long-term graft outcomes. METHODS: We analyzed the frequency and dynamics of pretransplant donor-specific antibodies following renal transplantation from a randomized trial that was conducted from 2002 to 2004 and correlated these findings with patient outcomes through 2009. Transplants were performed against a complement-dependent T-and B-negative crossmatch. Pre- and posttransplant sera were available from 94 of the 118 patients (80%). Antibodies were detected using a solid-phase (Luminex (R)), single-bead assay, and all tests were performed simultaneously. RESULTS: Sixteen patients exhibited pretransplant donor-specific antibodies, but only 3 of these patients (19%) developed antibody-mediated rejection and 2 of them experienced early graft losses. Excluding these 2 losses, 6 of 14 patients exhibited donor-specific antibodies at the final follow-up exam, whereas 8 of these patients (57%) exhibited complete clearance of the donor-specific antibodies. Five other patients developed ""de novo'' posttransplant donor-specific antibodies. Death-censored graft survival was similar in patients with pretransplant donor-specific and non-donor-specific antibodies after a mean follow-up period of 70 months. CONCLUSION: Pretransplant donor-specific antibodies with a negative complement-dependent cytotoxicity crossmatch are associated with a risk for the development of antibody-mediated rejection, although survival rates are similar when patients transpose the first months after receiving the graft. Our data also suggest that early posttransplant donor-specific antibody monitoring should increase knowledge of antibody dynamics and their impact on long-term graft outcome.
