ENAMORADO CASANOVA, Antonio et al. Primer trasplante cubano de riñones pediátricos para un receptor adulto: Presentación de 1 caso. Rev cubana med [online]. 2003, vol.42, n.5, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-302X.
The first kidney transplantation performed in Cuba in an adult recipient that was implanted both kidneys from a 2-year-old donor who died of a cranioencephalic trauma was presented. Data of the transplantation as well as the technique of implant and the immunosupression used and the satisfactory clinical, humoral and imaging evolution of the immediate postransplant were explained. The admission of a female patient due to megalovirus that complicated her further evolution, its satisfactory solution, and the present state of the patient that is attended at the outpatient department were also taken into account. It was proved that the dual transplantation of pediatric kidneys into an adult recipient is a valid option for treating patients with end-stage kidney failure in our environment.
