Sumario: | Living donor kidney transplantation is a widely performed medical procedure. Living kidney donation requires an in-depth health assessment of candidates. The potential living kidney donor must remain healthy after kidney removal. A consequence of donation can be a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and donors can become at risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). We present a rationale for potential living kidney donor withdrawal due to Paget’s disease of bone (PDB) based on a literature review. The treatment for PDB includes the use of, for example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI) as well as CKD, or bisphosphonates, which are not recommended for patients with decreased GFR. |
