Abstract

ABO incompatible allografting is contraindicated in most organ transplantations including heart because of the hyperacute and acute rejections caused by preexisting antibodies. However several reports showed that ABO incompatible organ transplantation could be managed successfully by plasmapheresis, antibody adsorption, immunosuppression, splenectomy, and so on. We experienced one success in ABO incompatible cardiac transplantation by means of plasmapheresis and immunosuppression. However, this does not justify heart transplantation across ABO blood group barriers. Because the effect of ABO incompatibility on continued acute rejection or chronic rejection has not been fully understood, long-term follow-up study is required.

ABO 부적합성 장기이식은 이미 존재하는 항체에 의한 초급성 및 급성 면역 거부반응 때문에 심장이식을 포함한 대부분의 장기이식에서 금기시 되어왔다. 그러나 ABO 부적합성 장기이식이 혈장교환, 항체흡착술, 면역억제, 비장절제술 등에 의해 성공적으로 치료되었다는 여러 보고가 나오고 있다. 우리는 혈장교환과 면역억제에 의한 ABO 부적합성 심장이식의 성공적인 치료를 경험했다. 그러나 이것이 ABO 부적합성 심장이식술을 정당화하는 것은 아니며, 계속되는 급성면역거부 반응이나 만기거부반응에 대한 ABO 부적합성의 관련이 충분히 알려지지 않았기 때문에 장기 추적검사가 요구된다.
