BACKGROUND
Liquid collections around the renal graft that are displayed in 51% of cases implicate a diagnostic challenge and a risk for graft function. We undertook this study to determine the usefulness of creatinine concentration measurement in drainage in patients with renal
BACKGROUND
Lymphocele is a special complication following kidney transplantation. The authors examined the factors associated with an increased occurrence of clinically significant perinephric fluid collections and/or lymphoceles among sirolimus-treated renal transplant recipients.
OBJECTIVE
From
BACKGROUND
In a retrospective study, we evaluated the frequency, clinical presentation, and management of lymphocele in kidney transplant recipients operated on in a single center.
METHODS
Between September 1984 and June 2005, we had 2147 kidney transplantations from living donors. During the
BACKGROUND
The etiopathogenesis of lymphoceles remains incompletely understood. The aim of our work was to analyze the perturbations of blood coagulation process for their possible impact on the etiology of lymphoceles. Additionally we performed an evaluation of the incidence and effectiveness of
BACKGROUND
In a retrospective study we sought to dissect the factors associated with an increased occurrence of clinically significant perinephric fluid collections and lymphoceles among sirolimus-treated renal transplant recipients.
METHODS
We compared the incidence, predisposing factors, and
BACKGROUND
The incidence of lymphoceles - lymphatic collections around a transplanted kidney - can be as high as 20%. We aimed to review the presentation, treatment and outcome of patients with lymphoceles.
METHODS
We reviewed a prospective database of 154 patients who underwent renal
Symptomatic lymphocele could impair the function of a graft kidney. The aim of our research was to conduct a five-year follow-up after symptomatic lymphocele therapy.Overall 50 patients undergoing the therapy of symptomatic lymphocele were enrolled in the BACKGROUND
Laparoscopic treatment of pelvic lymphocele secondary to kidney transplant has gained popularity in the last few years, although lesions of the urinary tract (ureter, renal pelvis, and bladder) have been reported frequently. To evaluate the result of this treatment and the associated risk
OBJECTIVE
To describe a single-center experience with sclerotherapy of postoperative lymphocele and to determine the risk factors for failure of treatment.
METHODS
From 1999 to 2007, 43 patients with postsurgical lymphocele were treated with sclerotherapy with a combination of povidone iodine,
OBJECTIVE
To review our single-center experience in managing posttransplant lymphoceles in pediatric kidney recipients. Lymphoceles are well-known complications after pediatric kidney transplantation (KT). However, there is no standard treatment for lymphoceles, and the literature lacks consensus on
Six patients have developed a lymphocoele after renal transplantation, an incidence of 4%. A lymphocoele should be suspected in a patient who develops a rising creatinine with a pelvic mass or pressure effects on the pelvic veins 1 or more months after operation. The diagnosis is confirmed by
BACKGROUND
The lymphocele (LC) described was associated with a sharp increase in plasma creatinine values, in the absence of any clinical symptoms. A open laparotomy procedure determined the resolution of the LC and the slow recovery of renal function. The huge dimensions of the LC (volume >3000 cc)
OBJECTIVE
Between January 1993 and December 2002 a total of 1,289 renal transplants were performed at our institution. Symptomatic post-transplant lymphocele presenting as increased creatinine and hydronephrosis of the allograft was recorded at 0.02%. Records of the 27 patients in whom symptomatic
A 65-year-old African American man with end-stage renal disease underwent renal transplantation and developed a perigraft lymphocele with an associated progressive increase in serum creatinine 6 weeks after surgery, which failed to resolve with percutaneous drainage and surgical therapy.
Lymphocele is a well recognized complication of renal transplant surgery. We performed a retrospective review of 305 renal transplant patients with over 2,500 scintigraphic exams to describe the pattern of activity on technetium-99m-DTPA blood flow and dynamic imaging, and iodine-131-OIH studies.
