摘要
Urinary tract anomalies or dysfunction leaves the bladder unsuitable for urine drainage in a significant proportion of children presenting for kidney transplantation. We reviewed a multi-institutional experience to determine the ramifications of kidney transplantation in children with bladder augmentation or urinary diversion.During a 28-year period 18 boys and 12 girls 1.7 to 18 years old (mean age 12.1) received 31 kidney transplants. Cause of end stage renal disease was renal dysplasia in 8 cases, posterior urethral valves in 5, obstructive uropathy in 5, neurogenic bladder/chronic pyelonephritis in 4, spina bifida/chronic pyelonephritis in 3, prune belly syndrome in 3 and reflux in 2.Of the patients 17 had augmented bladder (ileum 9, ureter 5, sigmoid 2 and stomach 1), 12 had incontinent urinary conduits (8 ileum, 6 colon) and 1 had a continent urinary reservoir. Surgical complications included 1 case each of stomal stenosis, stomal prolapse, renal artery stenosis, urine leak, enterovesical fistula and wound dehiscence. Medical complications included urinary tract infection in 21 cases and metabolic acidosis in 5. A bladder stone developed in 1 patient. There was no correlation between the incidence of symptomatic urinary tract infections and type of urinary drainage. Acidosis was more common in patients with augmented bladder (4 of 17 versus 1 of 14) but there was no correlation between the bowel segment used and the occurrence of acidosis. Graft survival was 90% at 1 year, 78% at 5 years and 60% at 10 years. Etiology of graft loss included chronic rejection in 6 cases, noncompliance in 4 and acute rejection in 1. There were no deaths.Drainage of transplanted kidneys into an augmented bladder or urinary conduit is an appropriate management strategy when the native bladder is unsuitable or absent. Patients with kidney transplants drained into augmented bladder or urinary conduit are at increased risk for urine infection. Graft survival is not adversely affected compared to historical controls when a kidney transplant is drained into a urinary conduit or augmented bladder.
