RECENT FINDINGS Mutations in ABCA3 are predominantly linked to neonatal and pediatric interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a minority surviving beyond puberty. Here, we present three patients with ABCA3 mutations who present with disease at the age of 19, 61 and 77. Moreover, we identified c.4451G>C (p.R1484P), c.1675G>A (p.G559R) and c.4745C>G (p.T1582S) as three novel ABCA3 mutations. In addition, we identified six additional patients with ABCA3 mutations in literature who reached an age above 18. Furthermore, we discuss the influence of infections, drugs and smoking on disease course. SUMMARY Although extremely rare, patients with bi-allelic mutations in ABCA3 may present at adulthood. Late onset of disease may be influenced by type of mutation or environmental factors.BACKGROUND An elevated terminal creatinine is frequently used as a reason for organ refusal in pediatric kidney transplantation. There is increasing evidence that adults who receive kidneys from donors with moderate to severe acute kidney injury (AKI) have similar outcomes to recipients who receive kidneys from donors with none to mild AKI. METHODS We used the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients to determine how many pediatric kidney transplant recipients developed delayed graft function (DGF) between 2000 and 2010. RESULTS When stratified by the donor terminal creatinine, there was no significant difference in the recipient discharge creatinine or the likelihood of developing DGF. In a logistic regression model, older donor age, male donors, and a longer cold ischemia time but not donor terminal creatinine were independent predictors of DGF. There were
