Abstract
Abstract
Background
Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a frequent complication in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and an independent risk factor of the patient’s survival and a prognostic factor of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the causes of these complications are diverse, usually overlapping, and less well understood.
Methods
This retrospective analysis was performed in 43 patients (28 boys, 15 girls; median age, 5.5 years) undergoing HSCT between April 2006 and March 2019. The main outcome was the development of AKI defined according to the Pediatric Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, End-stage Renal Disease (pRIFLE) criteria as ≥ 25% decrease in estimated creatinine clearance. The secondary outcome was the development of CKD after a 2-year follow-up.
Results
AKI developed in 21 patients (49%) within 100 days after HSCT. After adjusting for possible confounders, posttransplant AKI was associated with matched unrelated donor (MUD) (HR, 6.26; P = 0.042), but not total body irradiation (TBI). Of 37 patients who were able to follow-up for 2 years, 7 patients died, but none had reached CKD during the 2 years after transplantation.
Conclusions
Posttransplant AKI was strongly associated with HSCT from MUD. Although the incidence of AKI was high in our cohort, that of posttransplant CKD was lower than reported previously in adults. TBI dose reduced, GVHD minimized, and infection prevented are required to avoid late renal dysfunction after HSCT in children since their combinations may contribute to the occurrence of AKI.
