Revascularisation of iatrogenic superior mesenteric artery injury by end to end anastomosis during robot assisted nephrectomy

Abstract: HighlightsIatrogenic superior mesenteric artery (SMA) injury is rare and underreported.We hereby present a case of SMA injury during robot assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy.SMA got clipped and cut due to inability to identify it because of dense perinephric adhesion.It was repaired by end to end anastomosis.

“…Tumour size and location are the main tumour factors that predispose to SMA injury . Left-sided, large, upper pole, medial/hilar tumours are the main predictors of SMA injury during renal surgery [5] , [10] , [14] . Large tumours are likely to lead to significant distortion of the vasculature; therefore, meticulous dissection and mobilisation of the kidney and hilum can minimise the risk of injury.…”

“…If the SMA is transected, vascular surgery should be immediately consulted, and the repair can be performed using several options: (1) end-to-end re-anastomosis, (2) GORE-TEX ® Vascular Graft, (3) end-to-end SMA to renal artery stump anastomosis, or (4) splenic-to-SMA transposition [ 16 , 17 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Surgeons should choose the option with which they are more comfortable and best suits the type of vascular injury ( Figure 4 ).…”
