Renal transplantation using kidneys from hepatitis C-infected donors: A review of 30-years’ experience
Kidney transplantation is the optimal therapy for end-stage kidney disease but limited by the available number of organs. Using HCV+ donors, both in HCV+ and HCV− recipients, is a rational response to the organ shortage. We review the historic experience using HCV+ donors in HCV+ recipients and asse...

description | Kidney transplantation is the optimal therapy for end-stage kidney disease but limited by the available number of organs. Using HCV+ donors, both in HCV+ and HCV− recipients, is a rational response to the organ shortage. We review the historic experience using HCV+ donors in HCV+ recipients and assess long-term results. We also discuss contemporary practices, including the transplantation of HCV-viremic kidneys into HCV− recipients with different approaches to posttransplant HCV therapy. Resumen: El trasplante renal es el tratamiento óptimo de la insuficiencia renal terminal pero está limitado por el número de órganos disponibles. El uso de los riñones de los donantes VHC+, tanto en receptores VHC+ como VHC−, es una respuesta racional a la escasez de órganos. En este artículo revisamos la experiencia histórica usando riñones de donantes VHC+ en receptores VHC+ y evaluamos los resultados a largo plazo. Además, discutiremos las prácticas contemporáneas incluyendo el trasplante de órganos VHC+ virémicos en receptores VHC− con diferentes opciones de tratamiento VHC postrasplante. |
