Abstract

Kaplan-Meier analysis was conducted to compare graft times of anephric VHL patients to those with transplanted kidneys.RESULTS: A total of 23 VHLD patients were identified as either anephric or candidates for transplant. Out of this cohort, 11 total VHLD received 12 total kidney grafts. Median wait time from nephrectomy to transplant was 22.6 months (IQR: 1.02-40.25 months). Median age at transplant was 32 years (IQR: 23-54 years). Overall survival (OS) at 5 and 10 years of anephric patients who did not receive a transplant was 33% and 16.7%, respectively. OS rates of the transplant cohort at 10, 15, and 20 years were 91%, 78%, and 58% years, respectively. Median graft time was 161 months (IQR: 56-214 months). Graft survival at 10, 15, and 20 years was 69.8%, 69.8%, and 26.2%, respectively.CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate that transplant recipients have decreased mortality with no difference in cancer recurrence compared to those who do not receive renal transplant for RRT. This data can aid in informing providers of the optimal window for early RRT planning in VHL, while also improving patient counseling.
