Renal artery stenosis after renal transplantation. 1976

R A Schacht, and D G Martin, and R Karalakulasingam, and C S Wheeler, and A M Lansing

Renal artery stenosis occurred in eight of fifty patients who received a renal transplant during a three year period. The evaluation and management of these cases is summarized. Trauma associated with kidney procurement, preservation, or arterial anastomosis as well as the rejection process itself may contribute to the development of these lesions. Arteriography may be indicated at an earlier stage in patients who respond poorly to medical treatment of repeated episodes of "rejection."

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
