Abstract

Abstract Background In contrast to insulin-dependent type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), the indication for Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is still ambiguous and wisely Eurotransplant (ET) only granted transplant-permission in a selected group of patients. However, with regard to improvement of metabolic conditions SPK might still be a considerable treatment option for lean insulin dependent type 2 diabetics suffering from renal disease. Methods Medical data (2001–2013) from all consecutive T1DM and T2DM patients who received a SPK or kidney transplant alone (KTA) at the University Hospital of Leipzig were analyzed. Donor, recipients and long-term endocrine, metabolic and graft outcomes were investigated for T1DM and T2DM-SPK recipients (transplanted upon a special request allocation by ET) and T2DM patients who received a KTA during the same period. Results Eighty nine T1DM and 12 T2DM patients received a SPK and 26 T2DM patients received a KTA. Patient survival at 1 and 5 years was 89.9 and 88.8% for the T1DM group, 91.7 and 83.3% for the T2DM group, and 92.3 and 69.2% for the T2DM KTA group, respectively (p < 0.01). Actuarial pancreas graft survival for SPK recipients at 1 and 5 years was 83.1 and 78.7% for the T1DM group and 91.7 and 83.3% for the T2DM group, respectively (p = 0.71). Kidney allograft survival at 5 years was 79.8% for T1DM, 83.3% for T2DM, and 65.4% for T2DM KTA (p < 0.01). Delayed graft function (DGF) rate was significantly higher in type 2 diabetics received a KTA. Surgical, immunological and infectious complications showed similar results for T1DM and T2DM recipients after SPK transplant and KTA, respectively. With regard to the lipid profile, the mean high-density lipoprotein (HDL)- cholesterol levels were significantly higher in T1DM recipients compared to T2DM patients before transplantation (p = 0.02) and remained significantly during follow up period. Conclusion Our data demonstrate that with regard to metabolic function a selected group of patients with T2DM benefit from SPK transplantation. Consensus guidelines and further studies for SPK transplant indications in T2DM patients are still warranted.
