KIDNEY XENOTRANSPLANT, A REAL ALTERNATIVE TO TRANSPLANTATION? Renal xenotransplantation involves transplanting a kidney from an animal species, primarily pigs, into a human recipient to address organ shortage. Recent advances, particularly in genetic editing, have improved immune tolerance and reduced the risk of hyperacute rejection. Several compassionate-use transplants have been performed on human patients. A major concern remains the potential transmission of porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV), although no replication has been observed in humans. Other challenges include physiological compatibility, long-term graft survival, and ethical acceptance. Additionally, the cost of developing genetically modified organs raises economic questions. Despite these obstacles, xenotransplantation represents a promising solution to the organ donation crisis and could eventually revolutionize kidney transplantation.

LOW PHOSPHOLIPIDASSOCIATED CHOLELITHIASIS (LPAC) SYNDROME. LPAC (low phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis) syndrome is a rare genetic form of intrahepatic cholelithiasis, associated in 30% to 50% of cases with a pathogenic variant of the phospholipid transporter MDR3 (multidrug resistance protein 3). Clinical presentation of LPAC syndrome is similar to that of common cholelithiasis, but young adult onset of symptoms (before the age of 40) and recurrence of biliary symptoms after cholecystectomy are highly suggestive of the syndrome. Ultrasound of the liver is key for diagnosis, showing intrahepatic microlithiasis in the form of ductal comet-tail images or microspots. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), at a dose of 5 to 15 mg/kg/d, is the reference treatment. Endoscopic treatment of lithiasis of the common main bile duct and/ or the main hepatic ducts is sometimes necessary.
