    A primigravida, 37 years of age, gave birth to a healthy girl, one and a half year from transplantation of a postmortem kidney. The treatment, using immunosuppressors, and pregnancy monitoring are described in greater detail. -- A brief account is also given of additional cases of pregnancy of kidney transplant recipients. Aspects relating to high-risk pregnancy and possible consequences of immunosuppressive therapy are discussed.

    Post-transplant small cell carcinoma arising in the native kidney of renal transplant recipient
    Indian Journal of Urology (2009)

    Small cell carcinoma (SCC) originating from kidney is extremely rare. To date, there has been no reported case of primary SCC of renal transplant recipients' (RTRs)' own kidney. Here, we report the first case of primary SCC of RTRs' own kidney. Resection of bilateral native kidneys, possessing whole length of ureters and small cuffs of bladder along with a neoplasm located in her right kidney, was performed on a 68-year-old female patient, five years after renal transplantation. The immuno-histochemical result confirmed mixed SCC of the right kidney (SCC combined with little transitional cell carcinoma). Postoperatively, platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy (Cisplatin combined with Gemcitabine) was given, and the patient is still alive with well-functioning transplanted kidney.

    Kidney Transplantation From a 5-Day-Old Donor With a Single Functioning Kidney
    Experimental and Clinical Transplantation (2020)
    Rebecca VarleyOana PiscoranMichael PictonZia MoinuddinDavid van Dellen
    Kidney transplant restores renal function in eligible patients with end-stage renal failure who require renal replacement therapy. There remains a significant disparity between the demand and supply of suitable kidneys for transplant. In recent years, pediatric donors have formed an important area for expansion of the donor pool. However, neonatal donation (< 28 days) remains an underutilized resource. We describe a case of en bloc kidney transplant from a 5-day-old donor after circulatory death into an adult recipient. One kidney thrombosed almost immediately, leaving a single 4.5-cm, poorly functioning kidney. Eighteen months after transplant, the recipient has shown good function with the estimated glomerular filtration rate continuing to improve. This case demonstrates that a single neonatal kidney can grow and adapt to provide adequate renal function in an adult. This experience suggests that a single kidney from a neonate can sustain renal function in adults, and every effort should be made to maximize their use in transplant.

    Characteristics of kidney donors and recipients in Iranian kidney market: Evidence from Mashhad
    Clinical Transplantation (2019)
    Mehdi FeiziTannaz Moeindarbari
    Abstract The Iranian model of kidney transplantation is an example of a regulated living unrelated renal donation. In this paper, we collected and analyzed a unique dataset of 436 paired kidney donors and recipients, including their characteristics and the realized price of a kidney in Mashhad. As opposed to the global picture of kidney donation, we find that women are less likely to donate and more likely to receive a kidney. Moreover, the average price of a kidney amounts less than 2 years of work with the minimum level of wage.
