Renal allograft function not impacted by extensive aortic dissection
A 63-year-old hypertensive male underwent renal transplantation from his nephew in 2005. In 2007, he was diagnosed with aortic dissection—Stanford type A and B with aortic aneurysm. He had resection of the aortic aneurysm and replacement of the ascending aorta with a hemi-arch graft with left coronary artery implantation.

متن کاملConservative Management of Extensive Iatrogenic Aortic Dissection.
Iatrogenic aortic dissection (IAD) is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). There are no clear guidelines for IAD management, and limited data are available. Registry data and case series combined with extrapolations from our experience with spontaneous Type-A dissections suggest that very limited dissections are often managed conservatively with coronary stenting of...

متن کاملRestoration of renal allograft function by endovascular stenting of an iliac artery dissection.
Dissection of the external iliac artery is a very rare complication following transplantation of a renal allograft. Two cases have been described by Merkus et al. [1], which were related to previous trauma. Esteban et al. [2] reported non-traumatic dissection of the external iliac artery in a patient, which was successfully treated by Strecker stent insertion. In a series of 90 living related k...
متن کاملThe Uptake of 18F-FDG by Renal Allograft in Kidney Transplant Recipients Is Not Influenced by Renal Function.
PURPOSE OF THE REPORT F-FDG PET/CT has been recently proposed as a noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of renal allograft acute rejection (AR) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Still, the influence of kidney function on F-FDG uptake by renal grafts remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified all KTRs who underwent at least one F-FDG PET/CT. Kidney transplant recip...
