Chronic nephrotoxicity is one of the most serious side-effects of calcineurin inhibitor treatment and a factor in mortality and morbidity after liver transplantation. In our transplant centre, among patients who underwent a liver transplantation between January 1989 and December 2000, 14 liver graft
Chronic renal dysfunction is a frequent and severe complication in solid-organ transplant recipients. Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are the main pathogenic factors of renal dysfunction. Switching from CNIs to nonnephrotoxic drugs, such as mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors (everolimus and siro
The purpose of the study was to introduce mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in liver transplant recipients with renal dysfunction to decrease calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) dosages without increasing rejection risk. In this prospective, multicenter, randomized study, chronic CNI-related renal dysfunction was
## Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of sonography in distinguishing between mechanical and nonmechanical causes for renal transplant dysfunction. ## Methods: We reviewed all ultrasound examination reports (n = 286) for 63 consecutive patients who received 64 renal tr
Renal dysfunction of variable severity is being increasingly recognized as a major complication of calcineurin inhibitors (CI), in some patients even necessitating renal transplantation. Close and effective monitoring of the renal function is indicated. Current methods for this monitoring are calcul
