ABSTRACT
We performed a deceased-donor kidney transplantation on a 64-year-old woman. The donor was a 57-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus. A kidney biopsy showed nodular sclerosis, Tervaert class 3 diabetic nephropathy. Six months after surgery, serum creatinine had dropped to 1.1 mg/dL and urinary protein decreased to 0.21 g/day. A second renal biopsy showed class 3 diabetic nephropathy. This case suggests that renal tissue damage caused by a long history of diabetes mellitus does not necessarily contribute to proteinuria but is rather the result of metabolic factors including hyperglycemia and hemodynamic factors including fluid overload.
