Abstract:
  Objective  To evaluate the effect of Lifeport and static cold storage (CS) on preservation of donor kidney.   Methods  Medline, Embase, Cochrane library, CBMdisc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang database and VIP database were searched by computer, and relevant clinical studies on the effect of Lifeport and CS on preservation of transplant kidney were collected, with the search period from database construction to December 31, 2015. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, relevant references were selected, quality was evaluated, information was extracted, and risk of bias in the study was evaluated. In addition, Meta analysis was conducted using software Stata 12.   Results  A total of 16 studies were included with 5 randomized controlled trials (RCT) and 11 retrospective cohort studies (RCS). The results of Meta analysis showed that: compared with Group CS, (1) for total deceased donor (TDD), incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) decreased in Group Lifeport after transplantation, duration of DGF and average length of stay decreased, and 1-year survival rate of kidney increased after operation. The incidence of postoperative acute rejection (AR) and 1-year survival rate of patients were similar in two groups. (2) for donor after cardiac death(DCD): postoperative incidence of DGF and average length of stay decreased in Group Lifeport; there was no statistical significance in incidence of primary nonfunction(PNF) and AR, 1-year survival rate of kidneys and patients between two groups. (3) for expanded criteria donor (ECD): postoperative incidence of PNF decreased and 1-year survival rate of kidney increased in Group Lifeport; there was no statistical significance in postoperative incidence of DGF and AR and 1-year survival rate of kidney between two groups.   Conclusion  Application of Lifeport in preservation of donor kidney has certain advantages. However, more high-quality studies should be further conducted to verify the study findings due to limited quantity and quality of the study.

Abstract:
  Objective  To evaluate the safety and efficacy of robot-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy.   Methods  Clinical data of 31 donors and recipients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy in Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University from November 2013 to August 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.   Results  Donor nephrectomy was successfully performed in 31 cases. The operation time ranged from 110 to 190 min. Intraoperative hemorrhage volume was measured as 20-100 ml. The warm ischemia time of the donor kidney was 100 to 160 s. The retained length of renal vein was between 1.8 and 3.0 cm and the length of renal artery was 1.4 to 2.3 cm. In 2 cases, spleen injury occurred during the kidney extraction and was treated with splenorrhaphy. One donor had postoperative hemorrhage, which was treated with hemostasis and anemia correction. Thirty one donors received postoperative follow-up for over 6 months. No long-term complications were observed. Among 31 recipients, one patient had delayed recovery of renal graft function and the serum creatinine level returned to normal range after treatment at postoperative 1 month. The survival rate of kidney grafts was up to 100%.   Conclusion  Robot-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy is a safe and efficacious surgical procedure for kidney resection, which possesses the advantages of small trauma, rapid recovery and no influence upon renal function.

Abstract:
  Objective  To summarize the experience in retroperitoneal living donor nephrectomy under 3D laparoscopy and to investigate its clinical effect and safety.   Methods  The clinical data of 19 cases who underwent retroperitoneal living donor nephrectomy under 3D laparoscopy were collected. Operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, renal warm ischemia time, length of renal artery, renal vein and ureter, incision size and operative complications were recorded. Postoperative renal function of donors and recipients was observed.   Results  Nineteen cases of living donor nephrectomy were successfully completed under the 3D laparoscopy, and there were no conversion into conventional laparoscopy and open surgery. The operation duration of living donor nephrectomy under 3D laparoscopy was 80.5-125.2 (with an average of 102.3) min; intraoperative blood loss was 40.6-90.4 (60.8) ml; renal warm ischemia time was 100-230 (161) s. Length of renal artery, renal vein and ureter was 2.6-3.2 (2.9) cm, 2.2-3.0 (2.6) cm and 8-13 (10) cm, respectively. The incision size was about 5-6 cm, and the wound healed. Urine volume of the donors at 24 h after operation was 2 000-2 500 ml. Serum creatinine increased slightly in 1 case at 3 d after operation, and returned to normal through reexamination after 7 d and 1 month. The donors stayed in the hospital 5-7 (6) d after operation. All transplant operations were performed successfully, and delayed graft function did not occurred.   Conclusion  Accuracy of operation can be improved effectively by 3D laparoscopic surgery system. It is safe and feasible to perform retroperitoneal living donor nephrectomy under 3D laparoscopy.

Abstract:
  Objective  To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) in eliminating blood group antibody in ABO-incompatible patients undergoing liver transplantation.   Methods  Eighteen recipients with ABO-incompatible liver transplantation in the General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police from January 2012 to December 2014 were selected in the ABO-incompatibility group. The recipients with an antibody titer of anti-A or anti-B blood group>1∶16 were scheduled to undergo DFPP. Another 20 recipients eligible for blood transfusion were chosen into the control group. The changes in the antibody titer, blood biochemical parameters and the incidence of complications were observed in recipients with ABO-incompatible liver transplantation. The incidence of acute rejection and mortality rate between the ABO incompatibility group and control group were statistically compared.   Results  Among 18 patients, 15 with an antibody titer of anti-A or anti-B blood group>1∶16 received DFPP. After DFPP, the mean antibody titer was significantly declined. Detection of blood biochemical parameters indicated that the level of fibrinogen was significantly decreased following DFPP (P=0.0001). Among 20 cases receiving DFPP, 3 cases presented with hypotension, 3 with hemorrhage, 1 with nausea and vomiting, and 1 with coagulation in pipeline. All symptoms were alleviated after effective treatment. The incidence of acute rejection and mortality rate did not significantly differ between the ABO-incompatibility group and control group after DFPP (both P>0.05).   Conclusion  DFPP can safely and effectively reduce the level of blood group antibody, decrease the incidence of acute rejection after liver transplantation and enhance the success rate of liver transplantation.

Abstract:
  Objective  To summarize the clinical experience and effect analysis of liver transplantation from donation after citizen's death.   Methods  Clinical data of 76 donors and 78 recipients of liver transplantation from donation after citizen's death completed in Liver Transplantation Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University from March 2012 to November 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The functional recovery of early allografts in liver transplant recipients was observed and the risk factors causing early allograft dysfunction (EAD) were analyzed. In addition, long-term survival of allografts and recipient as well as complications was observed.   Results  The incidence of postoperative EAD was 36% (28/78) in 78 recipients. High total bilirubin (TB) and long cold ischemia time constituted the risk factors of EAD. Survival rate of the recipients was 92% (72/78) during perioperation, and 6 cases died, of which 4 cases died of primary graft dysfunction, 1 case of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage and 1 case of pulmonary infection. Postoperative abdominal infection occurred in 5 cases, with biliary stricture in 3 cases and vascular thrombosis in 2 cases. One case died, and the rest were improved after corresponding treatment. The 1-year survival rate of the recipients was 84.2% and 2-year survival rate was 80% after operation.   Conclusion  Liver transplantation from donation after citizen's death realizes favorable short and long-term effects, which can be regarded as a good source of donor livers. Important measures such as controlling the preoperative quality of donor liver and shortening the cold ischemia time can improve the clinical effect.

Abstract:
  Objective  To compare the effect of puncture needles with different diameter on percutaneous biopsy for transplant kidney under ultrasound guidance.   Methods  A total of 82 cases underwent percutaneous renal biopsy for transplant kidney under ultrasound guidance, and were divided into two groups based on the diameters of puncture needles, Group 18 G (n=31) and Group 16 G (n=51). The effect of biopsy and complications were compared between the two groups.   Results  Compared with Group18 G, Group16 G used less puncture needles and obtained more glomeruli (both P<0.01). The qualified rate of renal specimens in Group 16 G was significantly higher than that of Group 18 G(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups (P>0.05). Further stratified comparison was conducted, and the results showed that complications of the two groups were not statistically significant in case of puncture with 2 needles or 3 needles (both P>0.05).   Conclusions   There is similar safety of 16 G puncture needle and 18 G puncture needle to perform renal biopsies under ultrasound guidance. Under the allowable condition of patients, 16 G puncture needle is superior to 18 G puncture needle and realizes high quality of renal specimens.

Abstract:
  Objective  To analyze the law of the mid-term hepatic hemodynamics after liver transplantation and to investigate its relationship with liver function.   Methods  A total of 56 recipients underwent liver transplantation in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from February 2014 to October 2015 were studied, and divided into normal group (n=24) and abnormal group (n=32) according to the liver function. General information and liver function of both groups were recorded. Furthermore, hepatic artery peak velocity (HAP), portal vein peak velocity (PVP) and portal vein flow (PVF) before the liver transplantation and on postoperative day 1, 30 and 90 were measured through ultrasonic detection; hepatic arterial buffer capacity (BC) and adjustment BC were calculated. The univariable and multivariable analysis were performed to analyze the relationship between hepatic hemodynamics and liver function in two groups, and the receiver operating curve (ROC) was drawn.   Results  The PVP and PVF on postoperative day 30 in abnormal group were significantly higher than those of normal group (P=0.014, 0.049). The BC and adjustment BC in normal group were significantly higher than those of abnormal group (P=0.048, 0.011). The multivariable analysis showed that adjustment BC was the independent risk factor (P=0.047), with the area under the curve (AUC) of ROC of 0.705, sensitivity of 0.652 and specificity of 0.750.   Conclusion  PVP, PVF, BC and adjustment BC on postoperative day 30 may be related to abnormal liver function, of which adjustment BC can be used as one of the indicators for diagnosis and intervention of abnormal liver function.
