Full textAbstract:
Kidney transplant surgery is for thinking surgeons who enjoy being part of a multidisciplinary transplant team. Good ones recognize the small margin for error and avoid difficulties by careful preparation and anticipation of potential pitfalls. Progressively, their role has gained in significance and is now the most important variable in kidney graft loss in the first 6 months after transplantation. Deceased organ donation is complex, expensive, and insufficient in numbers to meet the demand for kidney transplantation. Living donor surgery is therefore a procedure of necessity. Laparoscopic approaches have obvious benefits to the patient but are not operations for the beginner. There are few remaining stalwarts of the open nephrectomy procedure. Because of the limited length of the donor ureter, kidney transplant procedures involve placement of the donor kidney into a heterotopic position with vascular anastomoses to the iliac vessels. No two procedures are the same. Observation of the transplanted kidney changing from a flaccid and pale appearance to one that is firm and pink, and within seconds of removing vascular clamps, is an unforgettable experience for the first timer. Even better is the sight of urine, minutes later. Good transplant centres select their new surgeons carefully!

Cardiac transplant recipients are among the most complex critically-ill patients in the peri-transplant phase. In this chapter, a comprehensive multi-organ system review of heart transplant recipient management is undertaken, after a brief summary of the pre-implantation donor organ management and the conduct of the transplantation procedures themselves. Specific issues addressed that are unique to the transplant recipient include technical complications, primary allograft dysfunction, and hyperacute and acute allograft rejection. Since issues in heart and lung transplantation are reviewed separately, heart–lung transplantation is not discussed as an independent topic.

These case studies illustrate infections encountered in hospitals among patients with compromised immune systems. As a result of immunocompromise, the patients are vulnerable to common and uncommon infections. These cases are carefully chosen to reflect the most frequently encountered infections in the patient population, with an emphasis on illustrations and lucid presentations to explain state-of-the-art approaches in diagnosis and treatment. Common and uncommon presentations of infections are presented while the rare ones are not emphasized. The cases are written and edited by clinicians and experts in the field. Each case highlights the immune dysfunction that uniquely predisposed the patient to the specific infection, and the cases deal with infections in the cancer patient, infections in the solid organ transplant recipient, infections in the stem cell recipient, infections in patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs, and infections in patients with immunocompromise that is caused by miscellaneous conditions.

Full textAbstract:
Care of the transplant patient post-operatively requires a multidisciplinary approach. The goal of the intensivist is to create an ideal environment for the allograft to recover from its ischaemic insult and return to normal function. An understanding of the recipient’s pretransplant physiology is essential, as the pathological states associated with organ failure may persist for weeks to months after transplant. In particular, cardiac and renal disease may impact care in the immediate post-transplant period. An understanding of immune suppressive strategies will enable the intensivist to mitigate nephrotoxic side effects of these medications and anticipate specific vulnerabilities to infection. Attention to all the details of good critical care will give the allograft and the recipient the best chance for long-term survival. The intensivist must be able anticipate problems related to surgery and early signs of allograft recovery and dysfunction. Common post-operative complications are described in this chapter.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 2 focuses on the solid organ transplantation (SOT). The Solid organ transplantation (SOT) is undertaken to restore organ function for patients with failing or end-stage disease of the liver, heart, lung, kidneys, and/or pancreas or to re-establish function in patients with short gut or other disorders of the intestinal tract. Organ transplantation requires lifelong maintenance immune suppression to prevent organ rejection. Infection can be related to donor transmission, reactivation from latency in the recipient, or acquisition de novo post-transplant. The evaluation of suspected infection in SOT recipients is guided by the clinical presentation, with likelihood shaped by prophylaxis strategies, host factors, and exposure history. Prompt evaluation is critical, often requiring multimodality imaging, microbiologic testing with cultures and molecular diagnostics, and invasive diagnostics or biopsy. The chapter concludes that, through use of biomarkers and indicators of pathogen-specific immune competence as well as better laboratory assessment of overall immune competence, a more granular identification of those SOT recipients at highest risk for infection will allow for optimization of prophylaxis and other infection prevention strategies.

This chapter focuses on aspects of anaesthesia for complex, major surgery such as hepatic resection and oesophagectomy. The theories and practice of enhanced recovery after surgery and perioperative optimisation with goal directed therapy are included here. The systemic impact of malignancy and its treatment modalities are also discussed. The practical and ethical aspects of organ transplantation are discussed. Anaesthesia for renal and hepatic transplant is described, as well as considerations for anaesthetising the transplant recipient for non-transplant surgery. Recognition of transurethral resection syndrome in urological surgery is potentially life-saving; causes, management and avoidance are discussed. The NICE criteria for performing bariatric surgery, types of surgery, and conduct of anaesthesia for this challenging patient group is also covered.

Full textAbstract:
Recipients of donor-derived tissues and organs are at particularly high risk of infection because of their unique combination of risk factors. Chronic illness results in more exposure to health care contexts in which pathogens—especially drug-resistant species—might be acquired. The transplant surgery itself compromises anatomical barriers to infection via indwelling venous and urinary catheters, endotracheal tubes, and surgical wounds. Donor-derived tissues and organs may harbor infectious pathogens undetected during rapid pre-transplant evaluations. The immunosuppression necessary to prevent rejection of donor tissues increases the risk of infection. In addition, each type of transplanted organ bears unique infectious risks. Many pathogens seen in post-transplant patients have unique clinical presentations. Infections in the transplant patient can vary depending on time from transplantation, the type of organ transplanted, and the primary manifestation of the infection.

Full textAbstract:
These case studies illustrate infections encountered in hospitals among patients with compromised immune systems. As a result of immunocompromise, the patients are vulnerable to common and uncommon infections. These cases are carefully chosen to reflect the most frequently encountered infections in the patient population, with an emphasis on illustrations and lucid presentations to explain state-of-the-art approaches in diagnosis and treatment. Common and uncommon presentations of infections are presented while the rare ones are not emphasized. The cases are written and edited by clinicians and experts in the field. Each of these cases highlights the immune dysfunction that uniquely predisposed the patient to the specific infection, and the cases deal with infections in the cancer patient, infections in the solid organ transplant recipient, infections in the stem cell recipient, infections in patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs, and infections in patients with immunocompromise that is caused by miscellaneous conditions.
