“…However, other authors suggest that estimation of GFR with the use of equations consisting of variables such as serum creatinine, age, sex, body mass (i.e., Cockcroft–Gault, Bjornsson, Hull, and Mawer equations) correlates with pre-donation 24-h urine creatinine clearance and renal cortex volume measured using computed tomography (CT) [ 29 , 30 ]. Nevertheless, eGFR still appears insufficient compared to exogenous filtration markers [ 31 ] whose selection, if they are used, should be individualized and the evaluation should be based on more than one equation [ 32 ].…”

Living donor kidney transplantation is a widely performed medical procedure. Living kidney donation requires an in-depth health assessment of candidates. The potential living kidney donor must remain healthy after kidney removal. A consequence of donation can be a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and donors can become at risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). We present a rationale for potential living kidney donor withdrawal due to Paget’s disease of bone (PDB) based on a literature review. The treatment for PDB includes the use of, for example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI) as well as CKD, or bisphosphonates, which are not recommended for patients with decreased GFR.

The popularity of living-donor organ donation has increased recently as an alternative to deceased-organ donation due to the growing need for organs and a shortage of deceased-donor organs. This procedure requires an in-depth health assessment of candidates, who must be in excellent physical and mental health. We present a potential living-kidney donor withdrawn from donation due to a newly diagnosed Paget’s disease of bone (PDB). The patient underwent computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bone scintigraphy, and bone densitometry with trabecular bone score (TBS) assessment. The sole lumbar vertebra affected by PDB was investigated comprehensively, non-invasively, quantitatively, and qualitatively.

(1) Background: Donor nephrectomy for living donor kidney transplantation using minimally invasive techniques is a safe procedure that has been used for more than 20 years with excellent results. The total laparoscopic approach offers decreased postoperative pain, less incisional morbidity, and a shorter recovery time. (2) Methods: We present the results of a series of 43 laparoscopic donor nephrectomies performed in a single center. The procedures were performed in a systematic approach with transperitoneal access using four ports. The main renal artery and vein were ligated using a linear stapler fixed with an alternate triple row of titanium staples. The specimen was extracted in an endoscopic bag through an additional incision. (3) Results: All procedures were performed laparoscopically without conversion to open surgery. The average warm ischemia time was 4.73 min. In all recipients, immediate kidney allograft function was observed. (4) Conclusions: Total laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy is a safe procedure. It was performed successfully in all cases with a short surgical time, low morbidity, and 0% mortality.
