Introduction: Presence of incidentally detected fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a challenging and controversial issue for selection of living kidney donors (LKD). Whether donors with FMD…2017 American Transplant Congress
Classification of Fibromuscular Dysplasia in Kidney Donors Based on Severity and Extent of Lesion.
Introduction: Selection of living kidney donors (LKD) with renal artery (RA) fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is controversial, as traditional diagnostic classifications lack estimates on FMD severity.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Endovascular Management of Transplant Renal Artery Stenosis: A Safe and Effective Treatment.
Background:Transplant Renal Artery Stenosis (TRAS) is a low incidence complication, but if untreated, can lead to graft failure, refractory hypertension (HT) and reduced life expectancy.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Inferior 10-Year Graft and Patient Survival After End-to-Side Reconstruction for Two Renal Arteries in Living Donor Renal Transplantation.
Purpose: Living donor kidneys with two arteries can be revascularized using various techniques depending on anatomy and surgeon preference. We hypothesized that the revascularization technique…2016 American Transplant Congress
