Complications of Kidney Transplantation
Kidney transplant is a common treatment for all types of patients with chronic kidney disease. When your kidneys completely lose their functions or do not want to undergo dialysis, they can opt for a kidney transplant.
Kidney transplant is an effective treatment, which places a healthy kidney in the patients body, and a successful kidney transplant can help people live a normal life again. So, many patients want a kidney transplant to prolong their lives. However, the cost of a kidney transplant is expensive and it is difficult for patients to obtain a donor and obtain a compatible kidney. Since the patient receives an adequate kidney transplant, they can also have some complications, which will affect them.
Common complications for a kidney transplant patient may include:
1. Bleeding
Bleeding is the most common complication for a patient with a kidney transplant in its early stage, which forms in the renal blood, a kidney transplant rupture and a broken graft of a blood vessel. When patients with kidney transplants suffer from these complications, they may experience intense pain in the area of the renal graft, irritation of the bladder, shock, elevation of the graft area, local sensitivity and sensitivity to rebound.
2. Infections
Infections after kidney transplantation are a common reason for the death of the kidney transplant. In general, infections include infection of the urinary system, oral infection, incision and skin infections and lung infection. And these infections will cause severe effects in patients.
3. rejection reaction
Rejection is the cause of the failure of the kidney transplant, and acute rejection in most cases can be reversed. The performance of acute rejection is swelling of the transplanted kidney, pain, fever, increased blood pressure, reduced urine volume and elevated creatinine level or unreduced creatinine level. Chronic rejection can occur in the months or years after kidney transplantation, which presents the symptoms of chronic kidney damage, high blood pressure, reduced urine volume and elevated creatinine level.
4. urinary leak
Urinary leakage is usually caused by anastomotic suture, too thin stitching, poor and deficient renal technology insertion, all this will affect the prognosis of kidney transplantation.
5. Acute tubular necrosis
Acute tubular necrosis is often unavoidable after kidney transplantation, which is mainly due to postoperative urine, fever and decreased creatinine level.
All these complications will cause negative effects in patients with kidney transplants, so people with kidney disease should receive rapid and effective treatment to prevent kidney failure in its final stage, which can help them avoid kidney transplantation. Therefore, early and effective treatment will be more useful and important for patients with kidney disease.
