Abstract

The adequacy of blood supply in the allograft is one of the main factors of kidney transplant vitality and function and the effectiveness of transplantation itself.

The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness and variants of arterial reconstructions of kidney allograft.

Material and Methods. The results of kidney transplantation were analyzed among 66 patients. During the period from 2012 to 2016, all of them were done kidney transplantation in the department of transplantology. There were 37 (56.1 %) men, 29 women (43.9 %), the average age at the time of surgery was 33.2 ± 12.0 years. According to the aim of the study all the patients were divided into two groups: the first group included 12 (18.2 %) recipients, who received an arterial reconstruction. The age of the patients was 30.8 ± 6.5 years, there were 6 (50 %) men, other – women. Another group involved 54 (81.8 %) patients without arterial reconstruction. The average age of recipients was 33.7 ± 12.9 years, there were 31 (57.4 %) men, 23 women (42.6 %). We analyzed duplex examination of kidney allograft on the 7.6 ± 1.9 day after kidney transplantation.

Results: According to the analysis of duplex examination the features of blood disorder in kidney allografts were not determined. The differences between groups were non-significant (p > 0.05). There were not identified any stenosis, thrombosis or bleeding in any cases of arterial reconstructions of kidney allograft; function of kidney allograft has preserved for the period of 2.2 ± 1.4 years.

Conclusions: Adequate arterial reconstruction of kidney allograft is effective and safe method of kidney preparation for transplantation.
