The Outcome of Pre-transplant Bladder Cycling in Patients With Defunctionalized Bladder (PBC and DF)

January 16, 2025 updated by: Mohamed Shaker, Ain Shams University
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pre-transplant programmed bladder cycling for patient with defunctionalized urinary bladder

Detailed Description

Kidney transplantation still remains the best treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Indeed, increasing numbers of patients are referred for transplantation, but there has been no concomitant increase in the supply of kidneys from the traditional donor pool. Many potential recipients awaiting transplantation, therefore must undergo dialysis for a long time. Regarding the detrimental effect of long-term dialysis associated with oliguria or anuria on the lower urinary tract, and especially in bladder, the interruption of physiological cycle of storage and voiding brings to a situation called Defunctionalized Bladder (DB) in which the bladder capacity became smaller in size. (Errando et al 2018).

In this study we will evaluate the outcome of renal transplantation into a defunctionalized bladder by comparing direct transplantation into this defunctionalized bladder and pre-transplant programmed bladder cycling.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Egyptian patients attending Ain Shams University hospitals
ESRD patients maintained on hemodialysis for more than 12 months having oliguria or anuria with reduced bladder capacity (less than 100 ml) assessed by cystogram.
started by the instillation of the sterile water in the bladder in amount equal to the estimated bladder capacity. Then the amount will be gradually increased till the patient can withstand filling the bladder with 250 cc of sterile saline for 2 hours.
