Ten years of donor-derived disease: A report of the disease transmission advisory committee

Daniel R. Kaul et al.

Summary: Unexpected transmission of disease from donor to recipient remains a low risk of organ transplantation, with infections being the most common form followed by malignancies and other disease processes. Most cases of donor-derived disease (DDD) show symptoms within 30 days, with bacterial infections typically recognized within 45 days. DDD can lead to graft loss or death, with higher rates associated with malignancy transmission, parasitic, and fungal diseases.

Organ recovery from deceased donors with prior COVID-19: A case series

Nikole A. Neidlinger et al.

Summary: Although limited data exist regarding organ donation from deceased donors with a history of COVID-19 infection, a case series of six deceased donors with a prior history of COVID-19 showed no transmission of SARS-CoV-2 to recipients or medical personnel. This suggests that organ donation from deceased donors who have recovered from COVID-19 should be considered, pending further research.

Liver transplantation performed in a SARS-CoV-2 positive hospitalized recipient using a SARS-CoV-2 infected donor

Tommaso Maria Manzia et al.

Summary: This case report describes the first successful liver transplantation using a liver procured from a SARS-CoV-2 positive donor, with the recipient clearing the infection and recovering normal liver function after the surgery. The findings suggest that the prompt use of SARS-CoV-2 infected liver donors could offer a life-saving opportunity for SARS-CoV-2 positive patients who have developed neutralizing antibodies.

Donor to recipient transmission of SARS-CoV-2 by lung transplantation despite negative donor upper respiratory tract testing

Daniel R. Kaul et al.

Summary: This case report highlights a proven transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from a lung donor to recipient, with sequence analysis confirming the donor origin of infection in both the recipient and a healthcare worker. It emphasizes the importance of testing lower respiratory tract specimens from potential lung donors and enhancing personal protective equipment for healthcare workers involved in lung procurement and transplantation.

Evidence of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Cells, Tissues, and Organs and the Risk of Transmission Through Transplantation

Amaury Gaussen et al.

Summary: The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 raised concerns for transplantation programs due to the potential risk of transmission through donated organs. Initial consensus excluded COVID-19 positive patients from donation, leading to a global decrease in transplantation procedures. Studies on the transmission risk through transplantation have produced inconsistent findings, highlighting the need for standardized screening practices and systematic recipient follow-up.

Mass Screening Is Associated with Low Rates of Acute Kidney Injury among COVID-19 Patients in Hong Kong

Kam Wa Chan et al.

Summary: The overall incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) among COVID-19 patients in Hong Kong is low, possibly due to vigilant screening and early hospitalization. Among patients who developed in-hospital AKI, the duration of hospitalization is prolonged and kidney function impairment can persist for up to 6 months post-discharge. Mass surveillance for COVID-19 is needed to identify asymptomatic subjects for earlier AKI management.
