Abstract

We experienced a young woman with congestive heart failure (CHF) caused by renovascular hypertension (RVH) and subsequent hypertensive heart disease. She underwent tumor resection and intraoperative radiation therapy because of neuroblastoma at age 2. She was diagnosed with RVH and hypertensive heart disease due to radiation-induced renal artery stenosis at age 12. Thereafter, she was hospitalized with CHF caused by uncontrolled RVH at age 19, and renal autotransplantation with extraction of left kidney was performed after the recovery of CHF. Her blood pressure has been well controlled without CHF readmission during four years of follow-up after the operation.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
