Here we present a new and more efficient en bloc technique that combines classic orthotopic liver and pancreas-duodenum transplantation and heterotopic kidney transplantation for a male patient aged 44 years who had hepatitis B related cirrhosis,renal failure,and insulin dependent diabetes mellitus(IDDM). A quadruple immunosuppressive regimen including induction with basiliximab and maintenance therapy with tacrolimus,mycophenolate mofetil,and steroids was used in the early stage post-transplant. Postoperative recovery was uneventful and the patient was discharged on the 15 th postoperative day with normal liver and kidney function. The insulin treatment was completely withdrawn 3 wk after operation,and the blood glucose level remained normal. The case findings support that abdominal organ cluster and kidney transplantation is an effective method for the treatment of end-stage liver disease combined with uremia and IDDM.展开更多
