Orthotopic renal allograft transplant. State of the art.
2021
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD)as it has shown a better quality of life and longer survival compared to dialysis. Patients with ESRD have associated vascular pathology in a significant percentage, with abundant calcifications at the level of the aorto-iliac axis.The survival of transplanted patients has also increased so an important number of patients have multiple transplants,patients with an indication for a third, fourth and even fifth transplant.In these cases, in which the iliac fossa is no longer practicable(atheromatosis, vascular abnormalities, occupied iliac fossae for previous kidney transplant…), orthotopic kidney transplantation offers a viable option with good results.
