Title
HIV transmission through living donor kidney transplant: An 11-year follow-up on the recipient and donor
Abstract
HIV transmission via solid organ transplant is a rare but serious complication. Here, we describe long-term outcomes in a case of living donor-derived transmission of HIV in a kidney transplant recipient. After 11 years since transplant surgery, the donor shows no evidence of abnormal renal function, while the recipient continues to have a functioning graft. HIV is well controlled in both individuals. This single case report highlights the possibility of acceptable long-term outcomes in living kidney donors with HIV as well as in donor-derived HIV transmission to kidney transplant recipients.
