Bilateral nephrectomy concomitantly with renal transplantation. 1983

B I Turner, and R E Richie, and H K Johnson, and R C MacDonell, and M B Tallent, and G D Niblack

During a 2-year interval 206 patients underwent renal transplantation at a single center, 38 of whom underwent bilateral nephrectomy and other adjuvant operations as part of the transplant procedure. The indications for this type of procedure were reviewed, with special emphasis on the control of hypertension. The morbidity and mortality (16 per cent) in this group were compared in detail to those in patients not undergoing a concomitant adjuvant operation. The results with regard to renal function were similar to the group as a whole and the indications for appropriate patient selection are discussed.
