Transplante de pâncreas e ilhotas em portadores de diabetes melito

Abstract: O transplante simultâneo de pâncreas/rim tem indicações específicas, riscos e benefícios. O procedimento, cada vez mais realizado, traz vantagens se comparado ao paciente em diálise, em relação à qualidade de vida, anos de vida ganhos e evolução das complicações crônicas. Se o paciente tiver a opção de realizar o transplante de rim com doador vivo, que apresenta sobrevida semelhante do enxerto e do paciente aos dez anos, o procedimento deverá ser considerado. O transplante de pâncreas após rim, quando efetivo,… Show more

“…In addition, WOPT alone leads to worse results than pancreas-kidney transplantation, with respect to long-term graft survival, in addition to increased morbidity and mortality, when compared with islet transplantation. [27][28][29][30][31] Obesity is a major cause of insulin resistance and, consequently, leads to increased metabolic demand for that hormone. This scenario represents a stimulus to adaptation of pancreatic β-cells through islet neogenesis, increasing the mass of native β-cells.…”

“…Islet transplantation is a less invasive procedure than whole pancreas transplantation, and requires less immunosuppression [3], [4], [5]. However, at present, it still has lower long-term success rates than whole pancreas transplantation [5], [6], [7], [8], and insulin independence is achieved only when a sufficient number of islets are transplanted [1], [3].…”
