Description
Jiemei Ji and co-authors follow kidney injury in children after liver transplants, in a 2024 study. Kidney harm after this surgery is common, yet its long shadow was poorly charted. The team tracked 132 children, aged three months to twelve years, for a year after transplant.
About 45 percent developed acute kidney injury, split among mild, moderate, and severe grades. Half of those children had chronic kidney disease a year later, against 23 percent of children who escaped early injury. Moderate, severe, and long-lasting injury each raised the odds of chronic disease several-fold. Death within a year ran at 9.8 percent overall, higher after severe or prolonged injury. Guarding young kidneys in the first days after transplant looks vital.
