Background. ABO incompatible kidney transplantation (ABO-I KTx) is nowadays a well-established procedure to expand living donor source. Graft and patient survivals of ABO-I KTx were demonstrated to be similar to those in ABO-compatible (ABO-C) KTx. However, detailed histological findings with protocol biopsy (PB) have not been demonstrated.. Methods. We reviewed 401 living donor KTx including 276 ABO-C and 125 ABO-I KTx performed in Kyushu University Hospital from July 2008 through November 2013. During this period, PB policy was uniform, and it was performed at 3-month and 1-year. We compared detailed PB findings, and the incidence of biopsy proven acute rejection (BPAR) and polyomavirus BK nephropathy (BKVN) using both protocol and indication biopsies between ABO-C and ABO-I KTx.. Results. The 3-month and 1-year PB were performed in 86.2% and 78.6% of the studied patients. The incidence of subclinical acute rejection defined as Banff grade Ia or higher and/or antibody-mediated rejection were ...

ABO-incompatible (ABO-i) kidney transplantation (KT) has emerged for overcoming the shortage of organ donors. Although this technique initially achieved only low graft survival due to isoagglutinin, recently developed desensitization protocols have improved survival to levels that are comparable to ABO-compatible KT. However, isoagglutinin is still regarded as a major obstacle to ABO-i KT. In this study, we evaluate the impact of isoagglutinin titer on clinical outcomes as well as factors that may influence isoagglutinin titers. In total, data from 95 patients who underwent ABO-i KT were analyzed. Preoperatively, rituximab administration and plasmapheresis were performed until the titer was reduced to ≤1:4. Retrospective analysis included blood group; timing and dosage of rituximab; isoagglutinin titer; number of plasmapheresis; and clinical outcomes including graft survival and serum creatinine. Graft survival was 95.8% (n = 91) and average serum creatinine at 1- and 1.5-year post-ABOi-KT was ...

Anaphylaxis and severe allergic transfusion reactions (ATR) are uncommon complications after blood transfusion. Nevertheless, these complications are associated with very severe outcomes, such as dyspnea, shock, and death. Patients with end-stage liver disease who require liver transplantation have a high tendency for bleeding because of splenomegaly-induced thrombocytopenia and decreased production of coagulation factors in the liver. Liver transplantation is a very long procedure and a significant perioperative blood loss is highly likely. Therefore, transfusion of platelets and other blood products is often necessary. We report a successful ABO-incompatible living donor liver transplantation in a patient with hepatitis B virus-related liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma who had a history of platelet transfusion-related anaphylaxis..

ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation has been successfully utilised in a deceased donor and living donor kidney transplantation to improve organ utilisation and decrease waiting times. We describe a case of a successful, unanticipated ABO-incompatible donation after cardiac death (DCD) kidney transplant in a patient who had a previous ABOi haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and had reverted to his original blood group B, after matching as a blood group A recipient with a blood group A donor. The recipient was unsensitized with a cPRA which was 0% and no donor-specific antibodies and zero HLA mismatch. An urgent anti-A titre was 1 : 2. Given the low antibody titres, we proceeded to transplantation. The patient developed delayed graft function and required dialysis on postoperative day 1 and day 2. The creatinine fell spontaneously on day 5, with progressively increased urine output and stable graft function on discharge at day 6. Anti-A titres were 1 : 1 on

A delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction (DHTR) is a type of transfusion reaction. It is defined as fever and other symptoms/ signs of hemolysis more than 24 hours after transfusion; confirmed by one or more of the following: a fall in haemoglobin (Hb) level or failure of Hb level to rise after transfusion rise in bilirubin (jaundice) incompatible crossmatch not detectable pre-transfusion. This can occur up to four weeks after the transfusion. Delayed blood transfusion reaction occurs more frequently (1 in 20,569 blood components transfused in the USA in 2011) when compared to acute haemolytic transfusion reaction. One way this can occur is if a person without a Kidd blood antigen receives a Kidd antigen in a transfusion. Other common blood groups with this reaction are Duffy and Kell.

Incompatible, yet needed: What are incompatible kidney transplants? And why are they done? The human body is primed to identify and destroy invaders like viruses, bacteria and other pathogens that can bring illness or death. Cells of the immune system and the antibodies they make recognize such foreign bodies and act to remove and destroy them. This defense system is a potential problem for kidney transplants. People have different blood groups and different human leukocyte antigens that can provoke an attack if a tissue, such as a kidney, or blood is transferred from one person to another. These two barriers are called blood group incompatibility and tissue (or histo-) incompatibility. A kidney transplant team uses the histocompatibility and blood bank testing laboratories to determine whether the tissues and blood group of a volunteer living kidney donor and the intended recipient match. A match is good, but matches are not always possible.. ...

Introduction: ABO-incompatible heart transplantation, traditionally contraindicated because of the risk of hyperacute rejection, has been used selectively in recent years. Infants have limited production of isohemagglutinins, which may lower the risk of hyperacute rejection. We analyzed the impact of ABO-incompatibility on outcomes after heart transplantation in infants.. Methods: Heart transplant recipients ,1 year of age reported to the United Network for Organ Sharing from 1999-2007 were divided according to donor-recipient ABO-incompatibility or compatibility. Outcomes included Kaplan-Meier survival and hyperacute rejection. Propensity-adjusted Cox regression modeling was used to identify predictors of mortality.. Results: 591 infants underwent heart transplantation: 35 (6%) received allografts from ABO-incompatible donors. ABO-incompatible recipients trended toward more congenital heart disease (71 vs 66%; p=0.06) and were less likely to have dilated cardiomyopathy (11 vs 29%; p=0.02). One ...

Renal transplantation is the preferred option for the treatment of endstage chronic renal failure in patients for whom there are no major medical contraindications. In well-selected recipients, both life expectancy and quality of life are superior to treatment with long-term dialysis. However, as the dialysis population continues to grow, the gap between supply and demand for renal transplantation is widening. Attempts to bridge this gap have included (1) relaxation of the criteria for a suitable deceased donor (expanded/extended criteria or marginal donors); (2) reversion to the procurement of kidneys from donors with cardiac death (DCD donors, previously known as non-heart beating donors); and (3) encouragement of living donation-including techniques for desensitization of recipients, also paired exchanges, both to circumvent blood group incompatibilities or preformed antibodies that would otherwise bar transplantation....

Blood group incompatibility (Rh or ABO problems): if a baby has a different blood type than the mother, the mother might produce antibodies that destroy the infants red blood cells. This creates a sudden buildup of bilirubin in the babys blood. Incompatibility jaundice can begin as early as the first day of life. Rh problems once caused the most severe form of jaundice, but now can be prevented with an injection of Rh immune globulin to the mother within 72 hours after delivery, which prevents her from forming antibodies that might endanger any subsequent babies ...

This special issue of Stem Cells International focuses on the potential applications of amniotic cells in regenerative therapies to repair tissues and organs that have been damaged by trauma, disease, or aging. Amniotic cell populations have historically included cells in amniotic fluid that have been sloughed from external and internal surfaces of the developing fetus and potentially from the amnion, the innermost extraembryonic membrane of the amniotic sac. Amniotic fluid is recovered by amniocentesis, a technique that was initially used to assess fetal health in cases of Rh blood group incompatibility [1] and to determine the sex of the fetus by the presence or absence of the Barr body in amniotic cells [2, 3]. These pioneering studies [4] provided accessible methods for ex vivo culture of amniotic cells as a source of normal, rather than transformed cancer cells for biomedical research. Fauza and colleagues [5] were among the first to explore use of amniotic cells for tissue engineering and ...

Because very young children (generally under 12 months, but often as old as 24 months[2]) do not have a well-developed immune system,[3] it is possible for them to receive organs from otherwise incompatible donors. This is known as ABO-incompatible (ABOi) transplantation. Graft survival and patient mortality is approximately the same between ABOi and ABO-compatible (ABOc) recipients.[4] While focus has been on infant heart transplants, the principles generally apply to other forms of solid organ transplantation.[2]. The most important factors are that the recipient have not produced isohemagglutinins, and that they have low levels of T cell-independent antigens.[3][5] UNOS regulations allow for ABOi transplantation in children under two years of age if isohemagglutinin titers are 1:4 or below,[6][7] and if there is no matching ABOc recipient.[6][7][8] Studies have shown that the period under which a recipient may undergo ABOi transplantation may be prolonged by exposure to nonself A and B ...

TRALI most common cause of transfusion related mortality (Miller, 7th ed).. Acute hemolytic reaction. Definition: When antibodies to a particular blood antigen already exist. Can be delayed if there is an amnestic response to a transfused RBC antigen to which the recipient is already sensitized.. Causes: Usually the result of ABO incompatibility and technical errors made during the collection of blood.. Risks: The risk of acute hemolytic transfusion reaction due to incompatible blood is 1:4 per 1 million units transfused and has a high fatality rate.. Most of the transfused cells are destroyed which can activate the coagulation system with DIC and release of anaphylotoxins and other vasoactive amines. Patients might present with back pain, pain at site of transfusion, headache, change in vital signs, pulmonary edema, bleeding, new/worsening renal failure.. ...

Results In total of 58 cases NJ {28 (2015), 30 (2016)}, the 40 were males (69%). They were categorised by the GA in near-term (35-37 w), full-term (,38w) and premature (,35w) newborns (51,5%, 45%, 3,5%, respectively). Comparing the BW,∼2/3 of newborns, who had jaundice were,3000 gr, while the percentage, based on the day of life, where hyperbilirubinemia occured, ranged as follows: 1 st day of life: 6.9%, 2nd day: 12%, 3rd day : 31%,,4 th day: 50%. In 1/3 of cases (∼36%) the cause of NJ was not clarified, while 24% was attributed to ABO group incompatibility and∼14% to perinatal infection (early-onset form: 87.5%). In the percentage of∼26% of NJ, were included more than one risk-factors. They treated with fototherapy (single and/or double), lasting 5-50 hours, good hydration and appropriate antibiotic treatment (in cases of infection).

In rare cases, transplants between a donor and recipient who have different blood types may occur by using medications to reduce the chance of a reaction. This is called ABO-incompatible transplantation.. • Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) and Panel Reactive Antibody (PRA): These tests help determine the likelihood of success of an organ transplant by checking for antibodies in your childs blood. Antibodies are made by the bodys immune system in reaction to a foreign substance, such as a blood transfusion, a virus, or a transplanted organ, and women may also develop antibodies during pregnancy. Antibodies in the bloodstream will try to attack transplanted organs, therefore, people who receive a transplant must take medications called immunosuppressants that decrease this immune response. • Viral Studies: These tests determine if your child has been exposed to viruses that may recur after transplant and help us to tailor your childs medication regimen after transplant. Diagnostic tests that ...

Background ABO blood group-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation is considered a safe procedure, with non-inferior outcomes in large cohort studies. Its contribution to living kidney transplantation programs is substantial and growing. The objective of this meta-analysis was to systematically investigate outcomes in ABO-incompatible kidney transplant recipients compared to center-matched ABO blood group-compatible (ABOc) control patients.. Methods Comprehensive searches were conducted in Embase, Medline, Cochrane, Web-of-Science and Google Scholar. MOOSE study guidelines for observational studies and Newcastle Ottawa bias scale were implemented to assess studies. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.3. A subgroup analysis on antibody removal technique was performed.. Results After identifying 2728 studies addressing ABOi kidney transplantation, 26 studies were included, describing 1346 unique ABOi patients and 4943 ABOc controls. Baseline patient characteristics revealed no ...

ABO-incompatible living related kidney transplantation (ABO-iLKT) has increased the possibilities for kidney transplantation in patients with end stage renal disease. Due to advancements in immunosuppressive agents and the identification of immunological conditions following ABO-iLKT, this transplantation technique has achieved the same success rate as ABO-compatible LKT. However, some patients continue to generate anti-blood type antibodies, despite conventional immunosuppressant treatment. A 60-year-old man was referred to our hospital for kidney transplantation. The proposed transplant was ABO incompatible, from a donor with blood-type A to a recipient with blood-type O. The recipients anti-A blood-type IgG antibody titer was measured at 4096-fold dilution. Following desensitization therapy, including mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) 750 mg/day for 3 months, intravenous Rituximab 200 mg, and two sessions of double filtration plasmapheresis, the anti-A blood-type IgG antibody titer decreased to only 516

Although the mechanism of post-transplant PRCA is not fully understood, it is believed that the persistence of host B lymphocytes or plasma cells producing anti-donor isoagglutinins is responsible for the delayed engraftment.12 In support of this hypothesis, autologous plasma derived from patients with PRCA inhibits donor-type erythropoiesis in vitro.18-20 In contrast, early erythroid progenitors can engraft at the same rate as myeloid progenitors measured by erythroid burst forming unit assays, indicating that ABO antigens are acquired at a later stage of erythroid commitment.21 Moreover, mixed chimerism analyses of hematopoietic cells after HSCT demonstrated temporal differences in the post-transplant eradication of recipient cells with a persistence of plasma cells for up to 9 months.12. In the present study the overall incidence of post-transplant PRCA was 8% and this complication occurred after major but not bidirectional ABO incompatible HSCT. The only two risk factors identified were a ...

The impact of ABO incompatibility on hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) outcome is controversial. As ABH substances are expressed on tissues and secreted in body fluids, they could drive an immune response in minor ABO-incompatible HSCT. The aim of the study was to investigate the prognostic role of the recipients ABH secretor status.; Patients who underwent minor ABO-incompatible HSCT were included. Secretor status was determined either serologically or by molecular genetics.; Between March 1996 and June 2012, a total of 176 patients received minor ABO-incompatible HSCT and 150 (85%) were secretors. Incidence and severity of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD did not differ between secretors and nonsecretors (cumulative incidences ± standard errors: acute GVHD on Day 100, 41 ± 11 and 46 ± 5%, p = 0.59; chronic GVHD at 2 years, 52 ± 13 and 56 ± 5%, p = 0.62, for secretors and nonsecretors, respectively). Additionally, nonrelapse mortality (NRM) and overall ...

BACKGROUND: Delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction (DHTR) can manifest with hyperhemolysis, a serious complication of red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. This has mostly been described in sickle cell anemia but occasionally in beta-thalassemia. Treatment is challenging; immunosuppressive medication has been reported to be useful by some but not others., CASE REPORT: A 1.5-year-old girl with homozygous beta-thalassemia was put on a regular RBC transfusion program because of anemia with stunted growth and abnormal bone development. After the first transfusion she developed DHTR with hyperhemolysis. Further RBC transfusions could not be avoided. Despite treatment with prednisone, immunoglobulins, rituximab, and azathioprine hemolysis continued. She received an allogeneic bone marrow transplantation after conditioning using cyclophosphamide, treosulfan, melfalan, and ATG. The transplantation was followed by treatment with cyclosporin A, methotrexate, and prednisone. Because of poor engraftment and ...

Blood is classified into four different types: A, B, AB, and O.. Another way blood cells may be classified is by Rh factors. People who have Rh factors in their blood are called Rh positive. People without these factors are called Rh negative. Rh negative people form antibodies against Rh factor if they receive Rh positive blood.. There are also other factors to identify blood cells, in addition to ABO and Rh.. Your immune system can usually tell its own blood cells from those of another person. If you receive blood that is not compatible with your blood, your body produces antibodies to destroy the donors blood cells. This process causes the transfusion reaction. Blood that you receive in a transfusion must be compatible with your own blood. This means that your body does not have antibodies against the blood you receive ...

We performed 1:1 propensity score matching and included 165 patients in each group. 82.4% of ABO-incompatible and 83.0% of -compatible LDLT groups had HCC within conventional Milan criteria, respectively, and 92.1% and 92.7% of patients in each group had a Child-Pugh score of A or B. ABO-incompatible and -compatible LDLT groups were followed up for 48.0 and 48.7 months, respectively, with both groups showing comparable recurrence-free survival rates (hazard ratio [HR] 1.14; 95% CI 0.68-1.90; p = 0.630) and overall patient-survival outcomes (HR 1.10; 95% CI 0.60-2.00; p = 0.763).. ...

N2 - Background: Intentional blood group (BG)-incompatible (ABOi) heart transplantation in childhood is emerging in many centers. Safety limits remain undetermined. In this multicenter study we have compiled experience on clinical and immunologic boundaries. Methods: Data from six centers in Europe and North America on ABOi transplantation were collected in a standardized survey. Results: Fifty-eight ABOi transplants were performed in 57 patients. Median age at transplant was 6.8 months (0.03 to 90 months); ...

Michael Breimer started his research in the Department of Medical and Physiological Chemistry isolating and structurally characterising blood group AB(O)H and related carbohydrate antigens. After his PhD examination, his biochemical studies relating to ABO-incompatible organ transplantation continued in the Department of Surgery. Studies of human kidneys/urinary tract revealed that human kidney contained a new type of blood group A structure. Blood group phenotypes relating to expression of ABO antigens in individual kidneys were identified. Based on A antigen expression, a hypothesis explaining why blood group A2 kidneys could be successfully transplanted to O recipients was postulated. Patients receiving ABO-incompatible kidney grafts were shown to elicit an individual specific response regarding antibody class and subclass. He was responsible for the clinical evalutation of a new blood group A/B saccharide-based immunoadsorption column. These results have been applied in clinical practice to ...

Because very young children (generally under 12 months, but often as old as 24 months[2]) do not have a well-developed immune system,[3] it is possible for them to receive organs from otherwise incompatible donors. This is known as ABO-incompatible (ABOi) transplantation. Graft survival and patient mortality is approximately the same between ABOi and ABO-compatible (ABOc) recipients.[4] While focus has been on infant heart transplants, the principles generally apply to other forms of solid organ transplantation.[2] The most important factors are that the recipient not have produced isohemagglutinins, and that they have low levels of T cell-independent antigens.[3][5] UNOS regulations allow for ABOi transplantation in children under two years of age if isohemagglutinin titers are 1:4 or below,[6][7] and if there is no matching ABOc recipient.[6][7][8] Studies have shown that the period under which a recipient may undergo ABOi transplantation may be prolonged by exposure to nonself A and B ...

This is an update of a previous post. Principle: In 1984 effective with the 13th Edition AABB Standards, the requirements for performing a direct antiglobulin test and autocontrol for compatibility testing were eliminated. The DAT is very important to detect delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions, certain autoimmune conditions, and drug-related hemolysis. Since that time, the immediate-spin…

If negative for the Rh antigen, the mother will develop antibodies against it if exposed to the babys Rh antigen.. The fetus has an immature immune system, so would not pass antibodies to the mother. Recall that babies rely on maternal antibodies FOR THE FIRST 6 MONTHS OF LIFE. Thus, if they are B-cell deficient (i.e. btk deficiency) immunodeficient, IT WILL OFTEN PRESENT AROUND 6 MONTHS OF AGE (this is a key Step 1 fact). ...

Kidneys from donors with blood type A2 can be successfully transplanted into blood type B and O recipients without the need for desensitization if the recipients starting anti-A hemagglutinin titer is within an acceptable range. National kidney allocation policy now offers priority for eligible B recipients to receive A2 or A2B deceased donor kidneys, and therefore, the frequency with which A2 or A2B to B transplants will occur is expected to increase. The precise mechanisms by which antibody-mediated rejection is averted in these cases despite the presence of both circulating anti-A antibody and expression of the A2 antigen on the graft endothelium are not known. Whether this process mirrors proposed mechanisms of accommodation, which can occur in recipients of ABO incompatible transplants, is also not known. Repeated exposure to mismatched antigens after retransplantation could elicit memory responses resulting in antibody rebound and accelerated antibody-mediated rejection. Whether this ...

The ABO system is regarded as the most important blood-group system in transfusion medicine because of severe hemolytic transfusion reactions and, to a lesser degree, hemolytic disease of the newborn. ABO grouping is a test performed to determine an individuals blood type.
