Development of Height and Body Mass Index After Pediatric Kidney Transplantation: Experience of the Nephrology Pediatric Service at HCFMRP- USP, 2005-2014

Abstract: Twenty-four months after transplant it was verified inadequate growth to recovery from stunting and excessive weight gain. RTx promoted greater growth in the youngest patients and most stunted at RTx.

“…Although catch‐up growth can be expressed in terms of height velocity, change in Height_SDS is more appropriate . Based on previous reports that have analyzed growth in children with RTx, we defined catch‐up growth as a height gain of ≥0.5 SDS per year during the first 2 years after intervention.…”

“…In our study, 68.9% and 44.6% prevalence of short pre‐RTx stature and severe short pre‐RTx stature, respectively, was observed, with a mean Height_SDS of −2.8 ± 1.5 at RTx. Our data demonstrate a higher frequency and severity when compared with results from previous reports, and our results are similar to growth behavior observed in a cohort of 17 Brazilian children, reported by Hillesheim et al, where short stature prevalence was 58% and mean Height_SDS at RTx was −2.66 ± 1.66, although all children underwent RTx after 2008 …”
