In contrast to insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), the indication for Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is still ambiguous and wisely Eurotransplant (ET) only granted transplant-permission in a selected group of patients. However, with regard to improvement of metabolic conditions SPK might still be a considerable treatment option for lean insulin dependent type 2 diabetics suffering from renal disease.
Medical data (2001-2013) from all consecutive T1DM and T2DM patients who received a SPK or kidney transplant alone (KTA) at the University Hospital of Leipzig were analyzed. Donor, recipients and long-term endocrine, metabolic and graft outcomes were investigated for T1DM and T2DM-SPK recipients (transplanted upon a special request allocation by ET) and T2DM patients who received a KTA during the same period.
Eighty nine T1DM and 12 T2DM patients received a SPK and 26 T2DM patients received a KTA. Patient survival at 1 and 5 years was 89.9 and 88.8% for the T1DM group, 91.7 and 83.3% for the T2DM group, and 92.3 and 69.2% for the T2DM KTA group, respectively (p < 0.01). Actuarial pancreas graft survival for SPK recipients at 1 and 5 years was 83.1 and 78.7% for the T1DM group and 91.7 and 83.3% for the T2DM group, respectively (p = 0.71). Kidney allograft survival at 5 years was 79.8% for T1DM, 83.3% for T2DM, and 65.4% for T2DM KTA (p < 0.01). Delayed graft function (DGF) rate was significantly higher in type 2 diabetics received a KTA. Surgical, immunological and infectious complications showed similar results for T1DM and T2DM recipients after SPK transplant and KTA, respectively. With regard to the lipid profile, the mean high-density lipoprotein (HDL)- cholesterol levels were significantly higher in T1DM recipients compared to T2DM patients before transplantation (p = 0.02) and remained significantly during follow up period.
Our data demonstrate that with regard to metabolic function a selected group of patients with T2DM benefit from SPK transplantation. Consensus guidelines and further studies for SPK transplant indications in T2DM patients are still warranted.
与胰岛素依赖型 1 型糖尿病(T1DM)相比,2 型糖尿病(T2DM)患者进行胰肾联合移植(SPK)的适应证仍不明确,明智的是,欧洲器官移植中心(ET)仅在一组选定的患者中授予移植许可。然而,就代谢状况的改善而言,SPK 可能仍然是患有肾脏疾病的瘦型胰岛素依赖型 2 型糖尿病患者的一种重要治疗选择。
分析了莱比锡大学医院所有连续接受 SPK 或单独肾移植(KTA)的 T1DM 和 T2DM 患者的医疗数据(2001-2013 年)。对 T1DM 和 T2DM-SPK 受者(根据 ET 的特殊请求分配进行移植)和同期接受 KTA 的 T2DM 患者的供者、受者以及长期内分泌、代谢和移植物结局进行了调查。
89 例 T1DM 和 12 例 T2DM 患者接受了 SPK,26 例 T2DM 患者接受了 KTA。T1DM 组患者 1 年和 5 年的存活率分别为 89.9%和 88.8%,T2DM 组为 91.7%和 83.3%,T2DM KTA 组为 92.3%和 69.2%(p<0.01)。SPK 受者胰腺移植物 1 年和 5 年的存活率分别为 T1DM 组的 83.1%和 78.7%,T2DM 组的 91.7%和 83.3%(p=0.71)。T1DM 患者的肾移植 5 年存活率为 79.8%,T2DM 患者为 83.3%,T2DM KTA 患者为 65.4%(p<0.01)。T2DM 接受 KTA 的患者发生延迟移植物功能(DGF)的比例明显较高。SPK 移植和 KTA 后,T1DM 和 T2DM 受者的手术、免疫和感染并发症均有类似结果。就血脂谱而言,T1DM 受者的平均高密度脂蛋白(HDL)-胆固醇水平在移植前明显高于 T2DM 患者(p=0.02),并在随访期间保持显著水平。
我们的数据表明,对于代谢功能,一组选定的 T2DM 患者受益于 SPK 移植。对于 T2DM 患者的 SPK 移植适应证,仍需要共识指南和进一步的研究。
