Results and discussion
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The authors concluded: When ethylene oxide-sensitized patients with chronic kidney disease stage V are considered for transplantation, the surgery represents a substantial risk to induce a severe allergic anaphylactic reaction. Therefore, quality care in full knowledge of the risk should be offered to these patients. At the same time, it may be possible that EO allergy could be regarded as a relative contra-indication for kidney transplantation in some centers. To our surprise, no reports regarding kidney transplantation in EO-sensitized patients have been published before now.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
