Background
Pregnancy in a kidney transplant recipient (KTR) is possible and safe after a 1-2 year post transplantation, stable serum creatinine (<1.5 mg/dl), controlled or no hypertension, proteinuria in 24 hours <500 mg and stable immunosuppressive levels. Preeclampsia is a common complication in KTR pregnant women associated to worse maternal and offspring outcomes, there is scarce available information this topic in a KTR in Latin America
Methods
Retrospective cohort study from October 2018 to April 2021 included 18 patients: >18 years who got pregnant after KT. Serum creatinine (SCr), proteinuria before, during pregnancy and after delivery, the presence of hypertension before pregnancy, episodes of kidney graft rejections, immunosuppressant therapy, and preeclampsia were recorded from medical chart, and compared it to the offspring’s gestational age, weight, APGAR score, NICU requirement and NICU stay.
Results
The frequency of preeclampsia was 33%, none of them were diagnosed with hypertension before pregnancy. Three women died after delivering (no obstetric associated), 1 lost graft function (in PD). SCr was higher during pregnancy and after delivery, offspring’s gestational age was lower, offspring’s weight was considerably lower, as well as APGAR score in women with preeclampsia, all NICU requirement were in children whose mother had preeclampsia and they had a NICU media stay of 19 days. In a logistic regression analysis, preeclampsia is a risk factor to a lower APGAR SCORE (p<0.001), requirement of NICU (p=0.001) and NICU stay. Other results are shown in the table.
Conclusion
Age, time between KT and pregnancy, gestational age, hypertension, serum creatinine, cesarean delivery was not different among preeclampsia, compared to the control group. Children from preeclamptic women tend to have lower weight and had lower apgar score and higher NICU requirement.
