We retrospectively surveyed the status of IVIg use in treatment for antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) in Japan between 2001 and 2022 for kidney, liver, pancreas, pancreatic islet. heart, lung, and intestine transplantation.
One hundred eighty-eight clinical departments responded. Of these, 54 clinical departments used IVIg for AMR. In addition, IVIg was administered to 17 in the kidney, 61 in the liver, 11 in the heart, 48 in the lung, 4 in the pancreas, and 3 in intestine.
We report on treatment details and IVIg dosage.
