Abstract

Kidney transplantation is the best treatment available for patients with end-stage renal disease. There are three categories of donors: living donors (LD), brain death (DBD) or cardiac death (DCD) kidney donors. In this review we analyze the current scenario of DCD renal transplantation in Europe and in Italy. In Italy DCD donation has not yet been significantly developed because of the obstacle of the 20 min no touch period after cardiac arrest, before cannulating and perfusing organs to be recovered. This procedure is requested by current Italian law and is not going to be changed in the near future.

We analyze problems rising from this law and suggest possible solutions.

意大利肾移植非心脏跳动供体项目的发展:一个视角

肾移植是终末期肾病患者的最佳治疗方法。有三种类型的捐赠者:活体捐赠者(LD)，脑死亡(DBD)或心脏死亡(DCD)肾脏捐赠者。在这篇综述中，我们分析了DCD肾移植在欧洲和意大利的现状。在意大利，由于心脏骤停后20分钟没有接触器官的障碍，在插管和灌注器官之前，DCD捐赠尚未得到显著发展。这一程序是意大利现行法律所要求的，在不久的将来不会改变。我们分析了由此产生的问题，并提出了可能的解决方案。
