Using a ureteral stent at renal transplantation significantly decreases the early urinary complications of urine leakage and obstruction. However, there is a significant increase in urinary tract infections, primarily beyond 30 days after transplantation. Stent removal within 4 weeks of insertion appears advisable.
This study demonstrates that it is feasible to safely transplant potential PT recipients aged 50 and above. However, good medical assessment and careful patient selection is strongly recommended.
TRAS is a recognized complication resulting in loss of renal allografts. Early Doppler ultrasound is a good primary diagnostic tool. Early intervention is associated with a good long-term graft function.
Type 1 diabetics with renal failure listed for pancreas transplantation are at a significant risk of mortality even without surgery. Transplantation offers considerable survival benefits, despite associated surgical and immunosuppressive risks. In selected patients, pancreas transplantation remains the benchmark treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
