Advancements in Positive Crossmatch Renal Transplantation Three Year Outcomes After Desensitization
Introduction Renal transplantation remains the gold standard for treating end-stage renal disease (ESRD), offering superior survival benefits compared to dialysis. However, patients with a positive crossmatch (PXM) face significant challenges due to donor-specific antibodies (DSA), increasing the risk of rejection. Recent advancements in desensitization protocols have enabled successful kidney transplants in sensitized patients. A study…

Equine Anti-Thymocyte Globulin ATGAM as an Alternative in Patients with Serum Sickness from Thymoglobulin
Introduction Thymoglobulin, a widely used rabbit-derived anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), is a critical component in induction immunosuppression therapy for high-risk kidney transplant recipients. However, its use can sometimes trigger serum sickness, an immune-mediated reaction that causes fever, rash, and joint pain. A recent case study explores the successful administration of equine-derived ATGAM in a patient with…

Complete Recovery of Chronic Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome with Plasma Exchange
Introduction Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome (ODS), formerly known as Central Pontine Myelinolysis (CPM), is a rare but serious neurological condition caused by the rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia. It can lead to severe neurological deficits, including dysarthria, dysphagia, quadriparesis, seizures, and coma. Traditionally considered irreversible, recent medical advancements suggest that Plasma Exchange (PE) may offer a…
