Brought to you by
2. Learning objectives:
1. This talk will increase your understanding about the
rationale (including risk/benefit assessment) for
pancreas transplantation in the management of
diabetes.
2. This talk will allow you to better appreciate some of
technical and immunological challenges associated
with pancreas transplantation
3. This talk will help you to better anticipate therapy
options for diabetic patients who have chronic kidney
disease. Brought to you by
4. Tight control reduces end organ damage
but increases the risk (2-3 fold) of
severe hypoglycemic episodes (1).

6. A successful pancreas transplant
completely normalizes blood sugar
control
However, it requires life long immunosuppression
Brought to you by
7. Types of pancreas transplants:
Kidney/Pancreas (pts undergoing kidney
transplantation)
Pancreas after kidney (already on IS)
Pancreas transplant alone (severe life-
threatening complications of DM)
Islet after kidney (no surgical procedure)
Islet transplant (no surgical procedure but
requires IS)
Brought to you by
9. Indications for Simultaneous Kidney
and Pancreas Transplant:
Presence of ESRD (or eGFR < 20 ml/min)
Presence of diabetes: type 1 or 2 (meeting
age (< 55) and BMI criteria (<30)
Lack of major complications and/or severe
cardiovascular disease which limits life
expectancy

16. What is the role of pancreas
transplant in type 2 diabetes?
Diabetes affects 10% of the population
90-95% is type 2
Distinction between type 1 and 2 not
always clear cut

Brought to you by
28. Post-Transplant Complications
•Early post-operative complications (Bleeding, infection)
•Venous Thrombosis
•Reperfusion pancreatitis
•Pancreas is a relatively low-flow organ
•Unrecognized inherited hypercoagulable state
in the recipient
•Transplant Pancreatitis
•Mild - transient amylase elevation for 48-96h
•Severe – fat necrosis, infected peripancreatic fluid
•Kidney (urine leak, ureteral stricture)

34. PAK and PTA have higher rate of
immunologic graft loss after 1 year
35. Indications for isolated pancreas
transplant (PAK or PTA):
Frequent and/or severe hypoglycemic
events
consistent failure of insulin-based
management to prevent acute and chronic
complications (poor control).
clinical and/or emotional problems
associated with the use of exogenous
insulin therapy that are so severe as to be
incapacitating Brought to you by

Psychosocial stability/ social support/ compliance/
commitment to long-term follow-up

50. Conclusions:
Pancreas transplants when successful, normalize
glucose metabolism and increase quality (and
quantity) of life.
“Good risk” diabetics (type 1 or 2) with renal failure
should receive either a living donor kidney transplant
or a combined kidney/pancreas transplant
Brought to you by
51. Conclusions:
“Good risk” diabetics with a functioning
kidney transplant (and problematic BS
control) should be considered for pancreas
after kidney
“Better risk” diabetics without kidney
disease, but with life threatening
manifestations should be considered for
pancreas transplant alone
“Good” = age < 55, BMI < 30, insulin use
< 1U/kg/day, no or minimal CAD, PVD
