THE IMPACT OF HEPATITIS C VIRAL INFECTION ON RENAL GRAFT AND PATIENT’S SURVIVAL – A SINGLE CENTER EXPERIENCE
AIM: It remains controversial whether hepatitis C infection (HCV) alters log-term patients and renal graft survival. Our aim was to analyze the effects of HCV infection on patients and graft survival. METHODS: We examined the 23-year (1990-2013) data of 471 renal transplant recipients (RTRs) who were anti-HCV negative and 21 RTRs who were anti-HCV positive at the time of transplantation. We compared graft and patients survival rates and causes of death and graft failure in HCV-positive and HCV-negative RTRs. RESULTS: There was no significant difference due to acute rejection crisis during the first-year of follow up (p=NS). The mean values of serum creatinine didn’t showed any significant differences after one-year, two-years and five-years of follow-up between the HCV negative RTRs and HCV positive RTRs (p=NS). In the HCV positive RTRs the main reason for graft loss was a chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) (42.9%) and acute rejection crisis (42.9%). On the other hand, CAN was the cause of graft loss in the 44.1% of HCV negative RTRs, while acute rejection was the cause of graft loss in the 22% of RTRs that were anti-HCV negative. There were no significant differences in the patients survival between the HCV positive RTRs and HCV negative groups of our RTRs (38.1%vs.22.9% ; p=NS). CONCLUSION: According to our experience, patients and graft survival were not affected by HCV infection. Anti-HCV positively should not preclude chronic renal failure patients from renal transplantation.
