Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation: which graft warns the most?

Background: Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) is still characterized by high rates of postoperative complications. This study aims to offer an in-depth characterization of early, medium-term, and late complications following SPK to derive insights for postoperative management and follow-up.

Methods: Consecutive SPK transplantations were analysed.

Significant heterogeneity in the diagnosis and long-term management of Wilson disease: Results from a large multicenter Spanish study.

Unlabelled: There is uncertainty regarding Wilson's disease (WD) management.

Objectives: To assess, in a multicenter Spanish retrospective cohort study, whether the approach to WD is homogeneous among centers.

Methods: Data on WD patients followed at 32 Spanish hospitals were collected.

Appraising pancreatic fistula in pancreas transplantation: A comprehensive complication index based analysis of postoperative outcomes and predictors of graft survival.

Background: A definition of pancreatic fistula specifically addressing pancreas transplantation (PT) is lacking. This study sought to characterize pancreatic fistula in this setting and to define its clinical relevance on the postoperative course and long-term graft survival (GS).

Methods: Consecutive simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantations were analysed.

SARS-CoV-2 Infection After Vaccination: Kidney Transplant Recipient Profile and Disease Evolution in a Single Center.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection has had a major impact on kidney transplant patients. Recent evidence suggests that solid organ transplant recipients who received mRNA vaccines reach low immunization rates. There are only few reports about the risk factors and severity of COVID-19 in these patients.
