Hydronephrosis early after aorto-bifemoral bypass grafting is probably an underestimated complication. We describe early and transient hydronephrosis that developed in two patients after totally laparoscopic aorto-bifemoral bypass surgery to treat aortoiliac occlusive disease. A conservative approach to treatment was adopted, and both patients recovered. We review the literature and discuss the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of this unusual form of hydronephrosis.
