Evaluation of Lipid Profile in Children Born to Female Transplant Recipients.

Introduction: Being aware of the nephro- and hepatotoxic effects of most immunosuppressants, assessing their potential effects on the health of the offspring is an important aspect of deliberate family planning after organ transplantation.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of immunosuppressive drugs used by pregnant women after kidney or liver transplantation on the lipid profile of their children.

Materials And Methods: Ninety-one children born to mothers after kidney or liver transplantation (study group) and 91 children of healthy mothers from the control group (control group) were included in the study.

The Aim Of The Study: This study was designed to compare the performance of eight patients (five males, three females, mean age ± SD: 63.

Analysis of the selected biochemical parameters of liver and kidney function in children of mothers after liver transplantation.

Introduction: Children of mothers after liver transplantation (LT) are exposed during fetal life to the immunosuppressive agents. These drugs may have hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic effects.

Objectives: The aim of the work was to assess liver and kidney parameters of children born from mothers who had LT.
