Renography within 1 Hour of Renal Transplantation: Technical Feasibility and Clinical Utility

Renography within 1 hour of renal transplantation: technical feasibility and clinical utility.

OBJECTIVE Renographies obtained within 1 h of renal transplantation were studied prospectively to evaluate their technical feasibility and potential clinical impact on successful treatment of immediate posttransplantation complications such as arterial or venous thrombosis, which require prompt diagnosis and management. SUBJECTS AND METHODS During December 1996 to December 1998, 127 renal tra...

UNLABELLED Kidney transplantation is the optimal therapy for the majority of patients with end-stage renal disease. However, the cost and health outcomes of transplantation have not been assessed in a middle-income nation with a low volume of transplantation, such as Malaysia. AIM AND METHODS This study used microcosting methods to determine the cost and health outcomes of living and deceased...

Pulmonary hydatid cyst and successful renal transplantation

  Abstract   Hydatid cysts are endemic hooknoses in Iran. It may involve various organs of   body. Liver is involved in 80% and lung in 10- 15%of cases. 25% of pulmonary hydatid   cyst is bilateral. Before any transplantations eradication of infection is necessary.   In a 26-year old man with renal failure referred for kidney transplantation. On   initial preoperative evaluation of this patient...

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR renography for renal function evaluation in ureteropelvic junction obstruction: feasibility study.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate split renal function, estimate single-kidney renal function, and identify cause of obstruction in patients with ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction by using contrast-enhanced dynamic MR renography (MRR). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventeen patients with UPJ obstruction underwent MRR and diuresis nuclear renography. Nuclear renography assess...
