“…In China, living donors were the main source of grafts. In LDSBT, the donors would experience risks of surgical operation, suffer from poor nutrition absorption and even psychological conflicts inherent with social and cultural problems (3, 4). Therefore, the safety of donors must be guaranteed while the viability of the graft is maintained.…”

Intestinal transplantation using living-related donors could potentially reduce the severity of rejection responses against this highly immunogenic organ by better tissue matching and shorter cold ischemia duration, compensating for the shortage of donor grafts. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of donors receiving living donor small bowel transplantation (LDSBT) in our hospital by reviewing the risk of operations and absorbing capability recovering retrospectively based on the parameters, such as body weight loss, blood loss, blood transfusion, operation time, duration of hospitalization, complications, and d-xylose tolerance test. After a follow-up period (mean 72 months, range: 48-96 months) of four cases of donors performed LDSBT in Xijing Hospital of digestive diseases dated from May 1999 to September 2003, no complication occurred. Therefore, pre-operation angiography, meticulous management of operation and accurate post-operation monitoring were particularly necessary to guarantee the safety of donors.

“…Furthermore, low concentrations of magnesium in red blood cells have been observed in about 30% of the patients on HPN who have normal serum magnesium levels [25]. An imbalance of Mg homeostasis as well as of bone metabolism and PTH secretion has been described in HPN and ITx patients [26,27], although a direct relationship between osteoporosis and Mg is still controversial [28][29][30].…”

In this study we compared the content of muscle free [Mg 2+ ] assessed by 31 P MRS to that of serum total Mg assessed by routine colorimetric assays in 15 patients affected by Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) on long-term Home Parenteral Nutrition (HPN) or who had undergone isolated intestinal transplantation. We also investigated in the same cohort of patients the relationship of muscle free [Mg 2+ ] and serum total Mg with parathyroid hormone (PTH) serum content. All patients showed a normal cytosolic free [Mg 2+ ] in the calf muscle despite about half of them having a content of total serum [Mg] below or at the lower edge of the boundary limits. Muscle free Mg 2+ and serum total Mg displayed an opposite correlation versus serum PTH, showing that the intracellular free form possesses a different functional metabolic meaning in the regulation of PTH secretion.

Electrolyte Imbalances in Pediatric Living Related Small Bowel Transplantation

Abstract: Our data reveal several electrolyte imbalances different and unique to postoperative small bowel transplants. Although enteral losses improve along with graft villi formation, electrolyte abnormalities continue, to which FK 506-mediated renal toxicity might contribute.
