Pregnancy and postpartum after kidney transplantation and cyclosporin therapy--review of the literature adding a new case.

The number of pregnancies after renal transplantation and immunosuppression is relative low. Since the introduction of a most effective medication, Cyclosporin A, there is not only an increasing improvement of the transplantation results, but there are also more reports on successfully concluded pregnancies. This report pertains to a 26-year old primigravida, whose pregnancy progressed without severe complications until the 33rd week of gestation. Then a sudden and rapidly worsening preeclampsia led to admission and delivery. The postoperative period was complicated by a severe septical shock. The literature is reviewed. Problems following pregnancy after kidney transplantation and triple immunotherapy with Cyclosporin A treatment are pointed out.

[Nephroblastoma in adults].

Nephroblastoma is very rare in adults and must be differentiated from renal cell carcinoma. The diagnosis can only be made by means of histological examination, which can cause problems because of the various morphological types of the tumor. In this paper an account is given of the authors' experience in the diagnosis and treatment of four Wilms tumors in stages I (n = 1), II (n = 1), III (n = 1) and IV (n = 1) in adult patients. One patient died of a relapse, two patients are taking part in a follow-up study and one patient is undergoing chemotherapy.

[Splenogonadal fusion].

The splenogonadal fusion is a rare but benign anomaly. The diagnosis is usually given at operation or histologically after operation. In about 50% of the patients who undergo surgery for scrotal tumor, an unnecessary orchidectomy is performed due to clinical unawareness of this rare condition. A case of splenogonadal fusion belonging to the continuous type is presented to illustrate problems of this anomaly and point out the importance of intraoperative microscopic sections.

[Fluorocytophotometic DNA studies in kidney carcinoma].

DNA measurements in renal cell carcinoma are demonstrating a considerable tumor heterogeneity. Tumor DNA content is one of important prognostic factors. Renal cell carcinomas can be divided into two main groups by single-cell cytophotometry: diploid/near diploid in grade 1 and 2 and mainly aneuploid in grade 3 with variable blocks and peaks. In different tissue samples from the same carcinoma we can found different polymorphism and DNA content.

[Ectopic adrenal cortex tissue].

A case of a 40-year-old man with an adreno-cortical ectopia in the region of the spermatic cord is presented. The genesis and complexity of this anomaly is discussed. The seldom occurring, but sometimes important clinical relevance of these ectopies is demonstrated.

[MR tomography following kidney transplantation].

The results obtained by MR tomography in 30 patients after renal grafting are compared with the clinical and histological data in respect of corticomedullary contrast (CMC). In 22 patients with regular functioning of the transplant the CMC was normal at 19.4%. Eight MR examinations yielded a clearly reduced CMC below 14%. In 7 of these 8 patients it was possible to prove histologically the existence of an acute tubular necrosis or of a transplant rejection. Noninvasive MR tomography yielded an early indication for treating the acute renal transplant rejection without being able to differentiate between such a rejection and acute renal failure.

[Pregnancy, labor and postpartum development after kidney transplantation and triple therapy with cyclosporin A--follow-up in relation to literature review].

This report pertains to a 26-year old primigravida three years after kidney transplantation and still on immunotherapy. Her pregnancy progressed without severe complications until the 33rd week of gestation. Then a sudden and rapidly worsening pre-eclampsia led to admission and delivery. The postoperative period was complicated by an episode of severe septic shock. Reported is a review of the literature. Problems following pregnancy after kidney transplantation and triple therapy including Cyclosporin A are pointed out.
