Short-Term Result of Renal Transplantation Using Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation–Supported Brain-Dead Donors

BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is now widely used to maintain hemodynamic stability after traumatic events among medical centers. It remains unclear whether renal transplantation using ECMO-supported donors carries poorer outcomes. METHODS From February 2010 to March 2013, we performed 9 renal transplantations (6 females and 3 males) from 5 ECMO-supported donors. Demographic data and clinical outcomes were retrospectively analyzed through medical chart review. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 15 ± 9 months (range: 8-37). Eight of the 9 grafts remained functioning within the follow-up period. One (11.1%) graft loss was noted after repeated acute rejection. Acute rejection occurred in 3/9 (33%) of cases. Delayed graft function was also observed in 3/9 (33%) of cases. CONCLUSION Renal transplantation using ECMO-supported brain-dead donors was not associated with an unacceptably high rate of graft loss in this short-term follow-up. It might be an alternative way to expand donor pools.

We report a case of malignant pelvic paraganglioma invading the urinary bladder with malignant ascites. The computed tomography revealed a pelvic mass adjacent to the urinary bladder. The patient had hypertensive crisis while receiving cystoscopy for tumor evaluation. After thorough preoperative preparation, the patient underwent exploratory laparotomy with removal of pelvic tumor and partial cystectomy with reimplantation of right ureter. Malignant paraganglioma is not established upon the pathology, but upon local invasion to bladder and malignant cells in the ascites collected during the operation.

Abdominal Subcutaneous Metastasis from Sarcomatoid Renal Cell Carcinoma

Subcutaneous metastases originating from genitourinary tract cancers are rare, especially for renal cell carcinomas. The most common sites for such metastases are the lung, liver, brain and bone. Subcutaneous metastases are considered ominous. We report a 78-year-old man who presented with a huge solitary mass over the suprapubic region of the abdominal wall. He had been diagnosed as a renal cell carcinoma with multiple pulmonary metastases. Treatment for the mass consisted of wide excision and continuing systemic interferon therapy. The patient died three months after the surgery, following a rapid local recurrence and general deterioration.

ZIEL:  Diese Studie erfolgte zum Vergleich der Wirksamkeit einer intravesikalen Instillation von Mitomycin C (MMC) zur Prävention eines nicht muskelinvasiven Ta- oder T1-High-Risk-Harnblasenkarzinoms (NMIBC) unter Verwendung verschiedener Schemata. MATERIAL UND METHODEN  Diese retrospektive Kohortenstudie wurde bei 152 Patienten durchgeführt, die zwischen April 2009 und September 2016 mit einer intravesikalen MMC-Injektion behandelt wurden. Der mittlere Nachbeobachtungszeitraum lag bei 32,67 Monaten. Alle Patienten unterzogen sich einer vollständigen transurethralen Resektion des Blasentumors (TURBT), an die sich innerhalb von 24 Stunden eine postoperative Instillation von MMC anschloss. Die Patienten wurden in 4 Behandlungsgruppen unterteilt: Bei Gruppe 1 erfolgte die Nachbeobachtung ohne MMC-Erhaltungsdosis; Gruppe 2 erhielt in den ersten 8 Wochen einmal pro Woche eine MMC-Instillation; Gruppe 3 erhielt in den ersten 8 Wochen einmal pro Woche und in den darauffolgenden 6 Monaten einmal pro Monat eine MMC-Instillation; Gruppe 4 erhielt in den ersten 8 Wochen einmal pro Woche und in den darauffolgenden 12 Monaten einmal pro Monat eine MMC-Instillation. ERGEBNISSE  Die allgemeine Rezidivrate lag bei 27,6 %. Gruppe 1 zeigte eine signifikant hohe (p < 0,05) Rezidivrate von 50 %, während sich bei den Rezidivraten der übrigen 3 Schemata kein Unterschied fand (Gruppe 2: 15 %; Gruppe 3: 24,1 %; Gruppe 4: 27,2 %). Darüber hinaus zeigte sich zwischen diesen Patientengruppen kein statistischer Unterschied bei den Rezidivraten von Ta- oder T1-Tumoren sowie niedrig- oder hochgradigen Tumoren. SCHLUSSFOLGERUNG  Unser Vergleich der verschiedenen Schemata einer intravesikalen MMC-Instillation ergab bei einer einzigen MMC-Instillation nach TURBT eine signifikant höhere Rezidivrate als bei Patienten, die nach 8 Wochen, 6 Monaten und 12 Monaten eine Erhaltungsdosis erhielten. Zeitlich fanden sich beim MMC-Erhaltungsschema keine signifikanten Unterschiede zwischen der 8. Woche und dem 12. Monat. Daraus folgern wir, dass bei T1 - oder Ta-High-Risk-NMIBC nach TURBT einmalig eine MMC-Instillation mit anschließender Erhaltungstherapie mit einmal wöchentlicher Verabreichung über 8 Wochen durchgeführt werden kann.
