MAGNITUDE OF PROBLEM IN DONORS >60 YEARS
• Organ discard rates of 45% in New England area (Dr Delmonico)
• Discard rate of 34% in Illinois area (Dr Mozes) • Pathology similar in discarded & accepted organs –
this makes it likely that many suboptimal organs are being used & good ones discarded
• There is a need for more standardized selection criteria to safely expand the current donor pool
![Page 3: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
RECIPIENT CRITERIA COMMONLY EVALUATED IN DONOR KIDNEYS
• Age • PRA & cross match status• Waiting time on transplantation list• Prognosis on dialysis• Availability of vascular access
(Dr Danovitch)
![Page 4: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
DONOR CRITERIA EVALUATED IN ACCEPTANCE OF KIDNEY
• Age• History of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, with
attention to both the severity & duration of disease• Other medical history such as known renal disorder• Cold ischemia time• Extent of HLA matching
![Page 5: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DONOR BIOPSY IS NOT NEEDED IN ALL CASES
• Known lupus nephritis with chronic renal failure• Renal infarction documented before death • Known active malignancy • Markedly atrophic kidneys • Severe calcific arteriosclerosis in hilar vessels
![Page 6: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
DONOR BIOPSY CAN BE POTENTIALLY VERY HELPFUL IN SELECTED CLINICAL
CIRUCMSTANCES• Old donor age:
-can define extent of senile arterionephrosclerosis which shows variability from person to person
-at age 75, mean %GS 9.5(1.5-23.0)• Hypertension or diabetes mellitus: can quantify impact of
these diseases on structural integrity of kidney: creatinine is not a very sensitive index of renal function
• Known donor renal dysfunction: distinguish potentially reversible lesions (ATN) from essentially irreversible lesions
![Page 7: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CAUSES OF RELUCTANCE TO USE BIOPSIES IN DONOR SELECTION
PROCESS• Partly lack of appreciation of how biopsy can
enhance clinical assessment of donor• Concern about prolongation of cold ischemia• Realization that the biopsy may be processed by a
resident at night• Studies showing poor reproducibility of biopsy
findings• Lack of consistency in literature as to the biopsy
parameters that are most relevant
![Page 8: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS
• Need more seminars in conferences & overviews in journals to clearly delineate the utility & limitations
• Secure OPO funding for: (a) technical personnel to provide optimal tissue processing & (b) contracts with qualified pathologists to come & read them at odd hours
• Increase reproducibility of biopsy readings by national Q/A programs
• Generate more literature to convince people who are not yet convinced that biopsies can be helpful
![Page 9: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
PROSPECTIVE STUDY USING EXISTING PRACTICE PATTERNS-1
• Identify OPO’s willing to implement a Performa listing commonly accepted donor/recipient selection criteria
• Information on this Performa could be communicated to surgeon when ever a kidney is offered, & if applicable reasons for refusal should be documented
• Perform biopsies on all such suboptimal kidneys & apply a standardized histologic grading system
![Page 10: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
PROSPECTIVE STUDY USING EXISTING PRACTICE PATTERNS-continued
• If organ is not used we could estimate prevalence of mild chronicity in these kidneys & calculate the inappropriate discard rate for good organs
• If organ is ultimately used by another center, recipient follow up could be used to validate or invalidate clinical criteria being currently used to discard organs by our less aggressive surgical colleagues
![Page 11: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
PROSPECTIVE STUDY MODIFYING EXISTING PRACTICE PATTERNS
• Identify OPO’s willing to bx but not use the data • Enlist help of surgeons & nephrologists currently cynical
about utility of a biopsy -persuade them to bx when in a quandary -determine for themselves how often they find biopsy
information useful in decision making process• Such biopsies can be processed ideally & need not be read
in the middle of the night• With sufficient numbers, comparisons needle vs wedge;
frozen vs permanents can be performed
![Page 12: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
PROPOSED RETROSPECTIVE STUDY-1
GOALS• To re-evaluate the widely used current paradigm of
using only kidneys with <20% glomerulosclerosis (recommendation based on studies with very few patients)
• To determine if kidneys with moderate interstitial fibrosis, arteriosclerosis, & arteriolar hyaline change, alone or in combination, can be safely used.
![Page 13: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
PROPOSED RETROSPECTIVE STUDY-continued
• Collate biopsies which violated locally set acceptance criteria, but resulted in transplantation as a result of discrepancies between frozen & permanent sections, or due to communication problems
• Identify donor organ pairs where only 1 organ was used; compare biopsy pathology in both kidneys & determine
clinical outcome in the kidney that was used• Contact US & European centers which perform routine
implantation biopsies & study outcomes assoc with samples having >20% GS, Ci2, CV2, glom thrombi, tumor nodules
![Page 14: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
CONCLUSION
• Our immediate plan is to formulate a Provisional Performa for collecting clinical & histologic data and circulate it to interested centers
• Any useful donor biopsy grading system that emerges will be presented at the Banff 2003 conference backed up by supporting data
![Page 15: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
GRADING OF GLOBAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS
• Treat as continuous variable from 0-100% • Mention total number counted (N)• Number with global sclerosis (n)• Calculate GS% (n/N x 100 per cent)
![Page 16: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
STUDIES THAT NEED NOT BE REPLICATED
• Purely descriptive studies describing correlations between clinical correlation & histologic parameters
• Studies seeking to establish an arbitrary cut off
between acceptable & unacceptable histology• We really need to define risk of unfavorable short-
term & long term graft outcome associated with different degrees of histologic abnormality corrected for clinical parameters
![Page 17: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

QUANTITATION OF GLOMERULAR THROMBI
• Specify number of glomeruli & glomerular capillary loops involved

GRADING OF ARTERIOSCLEROSIS
• Cv0: no arteriosclerosis • Cv1: less than 25% luminal occlusion• Cv2: 26-50% luminal occlusion • Cv3: >51% luminal occlusion• Mention range of changes if variability seen • If only tangential vessels seen, will comparison
intimal & medial thickness be helpful? • Record any native intimal inflammation present
![Page 21: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

• Lesion in arteries 1-3 layers, no complete IEL• ah0: no arteriolosclerosis • ah1: mild-moderate thickening in at least 1 arteriole• ah2: moderate/severe thickening at least 1 arteriole• ah3: severe thickening in many arterioles• NEED SUGGESTIONS ON DEFINING MILD,
MODERATE, SEVERE; ? MURAL AREA
![Page 22: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
HISTOLOGIC CRITERIA FOR TUBULAR INJURY (“ACUTE TUBULAR NECROSIS”)
• H&E: tubular dilatation, necrosis of individual cells or occasional complete cross sections, exfoliated cells & cell debris
• PAS: diffuse loss BB, denuded/ruptured TBM
![Page 23: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

REPORTING OF NEOPLASTIC LESIONS IN DONOR KIDNEYS
• Epithelial vs mesenchymal • Size (correlate intra-operative findings)• Completeness of excision• Histologic subtype, oncocytic, papillary, clear cell,
chromophobe etc for epithelial lesions• Nuclear grade
![Page 25: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
SAMPLING PROBLEMS
• Mention range of changes, if variability seen
cv1-cv2, ci1-ci2• % GS in superficial half & deeper half of wedge
biopsy
![Page 26: SUMMARY REPORT: DONOR SELECTION CRITERIA](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56813ada550346895da31ef1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
GROSS EXAMINATION OF KIDNEY
• Size of right & left kidneys (normal 9-11 cm), • Assessment of % area affected by cortical
granularity & scarring• Need to assess % normal & % abnormal possibly
with biopsies from both areas• Arteriosclerosis in hilum: is a simple grading
possible?
