Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since 2014, we have performed tonsillectomy for patients with recurrent immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) after kidney transplantation. One patient with primary IgAN showed biopsy-proven recurrent IgAN after living donor kidney transplantation. He had persistent proteinuria or hematuria after kidney transplantation. After tonsillectomy, he showed rapid progressione, and developed severe renal injury after tonsillectomy, or other problems such as refractory hypertension. This case suggested antibody mediated rejection was developed after tonsillectomy. Thererfore, two careful points were suggested (1) Only patients who showed recurrent IgA nephropathy alone should be selected, (2) we carefully take care of the course after tonsillectomy , (3) steroid should be used after tonsillectomy to prevent immunological active reaction.
