Objective:
To summarize the experience with perioperative management of multiorgan transplantation.
Methods:
From October 2001 to January 2005, 19 patients received multiorgan transplantation in Nanfang Hospital, including 6 with simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation (SKPT), 12 with combined liver-kidney transplantation (CLKT), and 1 with simultaneous liver-pancreas transplantation (SLPT). The surgical techniques, application of immunosuppressants, and complication management were reviewed.
Results:
All transplantation procedures were performed successfully. The transplantation-related complications included tacrolimus-induced renal toxicosis in 1 (5.3%) case, acute graft rejection in 3 (15.8%) cases, intestinal hemorrhage in 2 (10.5%) cases, intra-abdominal hemorrhage in 1 (5.3%) case, and lung infection in 1 (5.3%) case, all of which were cured after proper treatment.
Conclusions:
Donor selection, good quality of the donor organ, proper surgical approaches, adequate use of the-mmunosuppressants, and prevention of complications are essential to the success of multiorgan transplantation.
