The Use of Long-Term Monthly Basiliximab Infusions as Rescue Maintenance Immunosuppression in Pancreas Transplant Recipients.

This single-center retrospective study was designed to evaluate the use of basiliximab as an alternative rescue maintenance immunosuppression in situations where standard maintenance immunosuppression is not tolerated after a pancreas transplant. All pancreas transplants performed between January 11, 2006, and January 6, 2022, were reviewed. All recipients received rabbit antithymocyte globulin (rATG) induction with tacrolimus + sirolimus maintenance for simultaneous pancreas and kidney (SPK) and additional low-dose mycophenolic acid for pancreas transplant alone (PTA).

Role of continuous renal replacement therapy in management of the preliver transplant patient.

Purpose Of Review: Highlight the importance of acute kidney injury (AKI) among liver transplant candidates, its importance of survival and the vital role of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) as a supportive therapy.

Recent Findings: Kidney dysfunction is common in the preliver transplant patient. Early recognition, broad diagnostic work up, and therapeutic interventions are vital in minimizing morbidity and mortality in this critically ill group of patients.
