Abstract
|
|
|
Pancreas transplantation is primarily performed in type I juvenile onset diabetes mellitus (DM) At present the patients selected for transplantation often have complications such as end-stage renal disease, neuropathy and far advanced
retinopathy.
In these days, the survival of pancreas transplantation for treatment of patients with type I DM has been improved especially in simultaneous pancreas and renal transplantation. Various innovations in immunosuppression, management of the
pancreatic
exocrine secretion, recipient selection and HLA matching have been contributed to achieve a reasonable outcome in pancreatic transplantation compared with other organ transplantation.
Current improved graft survival has stimulated many centers in the world to get an interest on pancreas transplantation program.
Recently we successfully performed the first case of simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation in our country. Now we are going to present our 2 cases of simultaneous pancreas & kidney transplantation in type I diabetic patients
complicated
with
nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy.
