Alport syndrome can usually be cured after kidney transplantation.
Patients with Alport syndrome who have progressed to end-stage renal disease can undergo kidney transplantation, and kidney transplantation is an effective treatment for the disease. For patients treated with kidney transplantation, Alport syndrome can usually be cured if the kidney transplant is successful.
Currently, it is believed that the choice of kidney transplant donor is preferred to living kidney transplantation, but living kidneys are not used if post-transplantation anti-basal membrane nephritis has occurred. There are reports showing that after receiving a kidney transplant, patients with Alport syndrome develop antibodies against the normal glomerular basement membrane of the transplanted glomerulus, and anti-glomerular basement membrane nephritis occurs in the patient, leading to graft failure.
If a patient is diagnosed with Alport syndrome, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to receive consultation and treatment to avoid delay.
