[Two successful deliveries within four years after cadaveric kidney transplantation: a case report].

A woman successfully delivered two children after cadaveric kidney transplantation. She received a kidney graft at the age of 18 years because of end-stage renal failure due to chronic glomerulonephritis. Eighteen months after surgery, she became pregnant. As she was receiving immunosuppressive therapy with cyclosporin, azathioprine, mizoribine and prednisolone, we discontinued mizoribine. The child was delivered by a caesarean section in week 30 of gestation. Both the increase of liver enzymes and the decrease of creatinine clearance were slight and transient. She successfully delivered another child just a few days before the 4th anniversary of her kidney transplantation. Including this patient, we have experienced 11 deliveries by women bearing kidney grafts. Intensive joint management with the obstetric service is necessary to achieve successful delivery without losing the graft.
