title: [Infectious-inflammatory complications in patients after transplantation of the kidney].
abstract: The work deals with the results of retrospective analysis of infectious complications (IC) in 323 patients with terminal renal failure (TRF) who underwent 371 operations for allotransplantation of cadaver kidney (ATCK). IC frequency was 41%, their mortality, 42.6%. The structure of the IC was as follows: pulmonary 29.6%, wound 22.4%, urinary 20.4%, sepsis 19.1%, others 8.5%. Gram-negative microorganisms predominated in the etiology of the IC; gram-positive cocci, microbial associations, yeastlike fungi, and cytomegalovirus were encountered less frequently. The development of IC did not depend on the patients' sex, primary disease of the kidneys which led to TRF, or the duration of previous treatment by hemodialysis, but was directly related to the age of the recipients. It was found that the character of the basic and anticrisis immunosuppressive therapy influenced the frequency of IC occurrence. The authors recommend some preventive and therapeutic measures for reducing the risk of the development of IC in patients after ATCK.
