Mei Mei (a pseudonym), a warm mother, is a patient with kidney disease. Three years ago, Mao Mao's kidney was transplanted in the urology department of Union Medical College Hospital. Today, under the escort of MDT (Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment) team of Union Medical College Hospital, she became the first woman in China to give birth smoothly after transplanting a baby's kidney.
65438+February 1 1, before Mei Mei was discharged from the hospital, Professor Zhao Yin, deputy director of obstetrics and Professor Wang Zhendi of urology looked at the warmth of sleeping and said, "This is not only your child, but also our child."

10 years, nephritis developed into renal failure.
A pair of baby kidneys kept her alive.
Mei Mei was born in an ordinary family in Jingzhou, Hubei. One day in 2007, she suddenly found blood in her urine and her lower limbs were swollen, so she went to the local hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, 14-year-old Mei Mei was diagnosed with IgA nephritis, and her long and arduous journey to seek medical treatment gradually lost her smile.
2065438+June 2007, Mei Mei became difficult to stand and walk. After being introduced by his patients, he went to Union Medical College Hospital and asked Professor Wang Zhendi of Urology for help. After diagnosis, her nephritis has developed into renal failure and needs to be replaced urgently.
Three months later, a baby's kidney weighing only 3.7 kg successfully adapted to Mei Mei. The operation of double kidney transplantation for low-weight infants is extremely difficult, but Professor Wang Zhendi successfully transplanted the infants to Mei Mei after more than three hours of operation with years of experience in double kidney transplantation for children.
After two years of development, the kidneys of two quail eggs have grown to the size of normal adult kidneys and returned to normal function. Most complications have been cured.

I want to have a baby with him, which is Mei Mei's greatest wish after meeting her husband on 20 18.
The husband knows that his wife has had a kidney transplant, and if he wants to get pregnant, he will take risks. Although he also wants children, he is more distressed by his wife. He said, "It doesn't matter, we will live alone."
The pregnancy of renal transplant recipients is a high-risk pregnancy, which is prone to renal function loss and premature delivery during pregnancy, threatening the health of mother and fetus. But Meimei still wants to have a complete family of three.
She told Professor Wang Zhendi that she wanted to get pregnant. After examination, her renal function recovered well, and there were no obvious abnormalities in various physical indicators, so she could be pregnant, but Mei Mei still had hypertension and mild proteinuria. According to her physical condition, Professor Wang Zhendi removed drugs affecting pregnancy and fetal development in advance, adjusted antihypertensive drugs and immunosuppression programs, and actively contacted Professor Zhao Yin, deputy director of obstetrics of Union Medical College Hospital, to "feel her pulse" and prepare for pregnancy.
After half a year's preparation, Meimei naturally became pregnant. However, the obvious increase of renal flow during pregnancy leads to further aggravation of proteinuria, and may lead to pre-eclampsia complications and fetal growth restriction, which is a great test for Mei Mei, the fetus and medical staff.
Multi-team cooperation to escort

In view of the situation in Mei Mei, Professor Zhao Yin's team and Professor Wang Zhendi's team jointly tailored the delivery plan for her. On the one hand, they follow up regularly and adjust drugs according to the test results; On the one hand, strictly control blood pressure and strengthen monitoring and prevention; On the other hand, choose the right time to terminate pregnancy, take into account the maturity of the fetus and avoid serious complications.
At the 35th week, although the fetus is not yet full-term, Mei Mei's hypertension is difficult to control, and hypoproteinemia has already appeared due to massive proteinuria. "Can't wait!" Professor Zhao Yin decided to organize anesthesiology, urology and neonatology to make a careful delivery plan, and performed caesarean section for Meimei on February 3, 65438.

The operation was successfully completed, and the 5 kg female baby landed "warmly". Mei Mei said that she chose this name because she wanted her daughter to remember those who gave her warmth, and she also wanted her to shine like sunshine. At this point, the Union Medical College Hospital successfully performed the first caesarean section for pregnant women with transplanted baby kidneys.
