Title: | Chronic Kidney Disease After Liver Transplantation. |
Abstract: | Improved survival after liver transplantation has led to an aging cohort of recipients at risk of renal dysfunction. The etiology of renal dysfunction is typically multifactorial; calcineurin inhibitors nephrotoxicity, pretransplant renal dysfunction, and perioperative acute kidney injury are important risk factors. Metabolic complications such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease also contribute to the development of renal disease. Most LT recipients will eventually develop some degree of renal dysfunction. Criteria to select candidates for simultaneous liver and kidney transplantation have been established. Both delayed introduction of CNIs and renal-sparing immunosuppressive regimens may reduce progression of renal dysfunction. |
