Management of pregnancy in pancreas alone transplant recipient complicated with stage-4 chronic renal insufficiency and superimposed pre-eclampsia: Case report and literature review.
Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology 2017 October
OBJECTIVE: With the prolonged life expectancy in solid organ transplant recipients, their quality of life and fertility desire become of particular concern. Pregnancy in pancreas-alone transplantation, although rare and complicated to manage, is not impossible anymore. We here report such a case with literature review to address this issue.
CASE REPORT: A 29-year-old, primigravida patient with underlying stage 4 chronic renal insufficiency and type 1 diabetes mellitus post pancreas-alone transplantation 5 years prior to her initial visit consulted our service. Antepartum care with intensive monitoring of blood pressure, renal function, and tacrolimus serum concentration were given. Successful maternal and fetal outcomes are presented here.
CONCLUSION: Child-bearing in solid organ transplantation recipients has become more promising nowadays, even for a difficult case of pancreas-alone transplant recipient complicated with chronic renal insufficiency and superimposed pre-eclampsia. Thorough antepartum counseling and cautious monitoring of maternal, fetal and graft conditions by multidisciplinary specialties are key to favorable pregnancy outcomes.
