Iron deficiency anemia and iron losses after renal transplantation.


ABSTRACT: Iron deficiency contributes to anemia after transplantation. The magnitude of iron loss from blood loss in the peri-transplantation period has not been quantified. We prospectively estimated phlebotomy and surgical losses over the first 12-weeks following transplantation in 39 consecutive renal transplant recipients on hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD), or chronic kidney disease (CKD). At transplant, ferritin levels were <200 ng/ml in 51% of the patients, and iron saturation was
