Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: This article discusses renal artery thrombosis as a complication of distal renal artery stenosis in a kidney transplant recipient. This important complication should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute kidney injury occurring immediately post-kidney transplantation. Acute early transplant renal artery thrombosis...

An RI <0.7 is normal, >0.9 abnormal, and Colour Doppler ultrasound facilitates not only a global between there is a large grey area. A PI <1.5 is assessment of the intrarenal vasculature but can also normal, and >1.8 abnormal. The higher the RI or PI be targetted to...
متن کاملAcute transplant renal artery thrombosis due to distal renal artery stenosis: A case report and review of the literature
BACKGROUND Acute renal artery thrombosis is a devastating complication of renal transplantation that can result in graft loss if not detected early. Surgical and technical errors are the major cause of renal artery thrombosis. In this article, for the first time, we are reporting a case of acute renal artery thrombosis that developed early post-transplantation due to distal renal artery stenosi...
متن کاملRenal Allograft Thrombosis in the Early Post Transplant Period
Renal allograft thrombosis involving either the renal artery or the veins is a well known entity in clinical practice. This complication of the renal transplant surgery is more common in the early part of the post transplant period and it is usually associated with acute antibody mediated rejection. This more commonly occurs in the paediatric renal transplant and also seems to have some relatio...
متن کاملAcute renal artery and vein thrombosis after renal transplant, associated with a short partial thromboplastin time and factor V Leiden mutation.
Renal graft thrombosis is a rare but devastating complication of renal transplantation. It accounts for one-third to one-half of early graft losses. We report a patient with acute renal artery and vein thrombosis associated with abnormally short activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and factor V Leiden mutation. Vascular thrombosis developed on the ninth post-transplant day and led to a ...
