- W2916708292 abstract "The prevalence of BK-induced nephritis in renal transplant recipients is estimated to be 1% to 10%; the rate of graft loss within 1 year is 30% to 65%. We conducted this study to evaluate screening of BK virus in blood and/or urine among renal transplant recipients and to assess the effects of different therapeutic modalities in renal transplant recipients with BK nephropathy.Kidney transplant recipients were screened at the time of transplant and then at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months posttransplant. Fiftynine patients were diagnosed with BK virus viremia. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to treatment: group 1 (n = 29) received an active treatment and group 2 (n = 30) received minimized immunosuppression.Most patients required graft biopsies to confirm diagnosis (86.2% in group 1 vs 50% in group 2; P = .03). Both groups were comparable regarding demographic data. Initial posttransplant graft function was significantly better in group 1 (P = .017); ultimately, there was no significant difference between both groups regarding graft survival (P= .51). Fifty percent of patients had biopsy-proven acute T-cell-mediated rejection before BK virus-associated nephropathy diagnosis (significantly higher in group 1). Serum creatinine levels were significantly better in group 2 at 3, 4, and 5 years after BK nephropathy (P = .001, .017, and .003, respectively).The prevalence of BK nephropathy in our renal transplant recipients was 5.9% with a rate of graft loss ranging from 43% to 51%. Regular screening, less intensive immunosuppressive therapy, and early intervention by reduction of immunosuppressive medications are advisable to obtain early diagnosis and to have better outcomes of BK virus-associated nephropathy with antiviral agents." @default.
