Kidney Transplantation in the New Hospital Model in Turkey: 3 Years of Experience in Ankara City Hospital

Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective: City hospitals, as a new model hospital, started to serve in approximately 20 different cities in Turkey. In this study, we aimed to present the 3 years experience of Ankara City Hospital kidney transplant unit, which has exceeded 100 cases, as a new hospital model. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively collected the data of 101 end-stage renal disease patients who underwent live or cadaveric kidney transplantation in the Department of Urology at Ankara City Hospital. The demographic data of the recipient and donor, postoperative complications, patient survival and graft functions were recorded. Results: Patient and graft survival rates of the recipients were 96% and 98% at 36 months follow-up, respectively. The median serum creatinine level at post-op first day, 1 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months and 36 months posttransplantion was 1,3 (range, 0,7-5,7) mg/dl, 1,3 (range, 0,8-1,7) mg/dl, 1,3 (range, 0,8-2,5) mg/dl, 1,3 (range, 0,7-2) mg/dl, 1,2 (range, 0,8-1,9) mg/dl, 1,4 (range, 0,8-2,4) mg/dl and 1,4 (range, 1-2,4) mg/dl, respectively. 6 (5,9%) patients with urinoma were treated conservatively with urinary catheterization and percutaneous drainage. Renal artery stenosis was observed in 2 (2%) patients. Conclusion: Kidney transplantation is still the most important treatment option for ESRD patients in Turkey as in the world. In our center, we observed that graft function results were acceptably good at 36 months follow-up. Keywords: city hospital, graft function, kidney transplantation
