Abstract
Delay graft function (DGF) is a condition that is frequently associated with kidney transplantation and could complicate subsequent evolution of the renal graft. There are multiple factors implicated in the development of DGF, some avoidable through careful management, others without the possibility of correction. Gordon syndrome or type II pseudo-hypoaldosteronism and nephrotoxicity induced by calcineurin inhibitors are complications that can precipitate the development of DGF. These unfavorable manifestations can occur after high levels of Tacrolimus secondary starting calcineurin inhibitors treatment and can be prevented with careful monitorization of its levels. We reported a case of a 58-year-old patient who was admitted as receptor for cadaveric kidney transplantation (KT) and developed all the complications associated with Gordon-like syndrome and nephrotoxicity including DGF in the context of high Tacrolimus levels after starting calcineurin inhibitors treatment.
期刊介绍：
Chirurgia is a bimonthly journal. In Chirurgia, original papers in the area of general surgery which neither
appeared, nor were sent for publication in other periodicals, can be published. You can send original articles,
new surgical techniques, or comprehensive general reports on surgical topics, clinical case presentations and,
depending on publication space, - reviews of some articles of general interest to surgeons from other publications.
Chirurgia is also a place for sharing information about the activity of various branches of the Romanian Society of
Surgery, information on Congresses and Symposiums organized by the Romanian Society of Surgery and
participation notes in other scientific meetings.
Letters to the editor: Letters commenting on papers published in Chirurgia are welcomed. They should contain
substantive ideas and commentaries supported by appropriate data, and should not exceed 2 pages. Please
