Abstract
The kidney is one of most frequent transplants to be performed in multi-organ transplantation. A simultaneous heart and kidney transplant (SHKT) is the best-known treatment method in patients with severe heart failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Here, the authors describe the case of a kidney re-transplantation after SHKT, which is in accordance with the majority of studies, and proves the safety of simultaneous procedures. The article highlights the complex care required after the transplant, followed by the multi-factor qualification for re-transplantation. In conclusion, the case shows that SHKT provides long-term favorable outcomes and enables a repeated kidney transplantation with satisfactory one-year follow-up results.
