Abdominal bruit after renal transplantation.
Forty-seven recipients of renal allografts have been studied at varying intervals of up to five years after transplantation. Renal artery bruit occurred in eight of 16 patients observed over the first two post-transplant months and disappeared spontaneously in four of these. The disappearance of the bruit was associated with poor renal function. Renal bruits were audible in 10 patients examined...
متن کاملThe effect of body position on compartmental intra-abdominal pressure following liver transplantation
BACKGROUND Current assumptions rely on intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) being uniform across the abdominal cavity. The abdominal contents are, however, a heterogeneous mix of solid, liquid and gas, and pressure transmission may not be uniform. The current study examines the upper and lower IAP following liver transplantation. METHODS IAP was measured directly via intra-peritoneal catheters plac...
متن کاملAbdominal pain and abnormal liver tests after orthotopic liver transplantation.
A 53-year-old man is seen in clinic 4 months after receiving an orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) for two small (<3 cm in diameter) hepatomas which were discovered incidentally. The patient had a history of heavy alcohol use in his twenties and thirties, but has not used alcohol for over 10 years. Liver histology on the resected organ revealed early micronodular cirrhosis with the two tumor nod...
متن کاملEffects of increased intra-abdominal pressure and volume expansion on renal function in the rat.
BACKGROUND The effects of increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and volume expansion on renal function in the rat were studied to gain more knowledge of the oliguria seen during laparoscopic procedures and to reduce the detrimental renal effects of IAP. METHODS IAP was elevated to 5 or 10 mmHg by insufflation of CO(2) and maintained for 2 h in anaesthetized and mechanically ventilated rats...
متن کاملIntra-abdominal pressure, intra-abdominal hypertension, and pregnancy: a review
The last several decades have seen many advances in the recognition and prevention of the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) and its precursor, intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH). There has also been a relative explosion of knowledge in the critical care, trauma, and surgical populations, and the inception of a society dedicated to its understanding, the World Society of the Abdominal Compart...
