Influence of laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy in ischemia–reperfusion syndrome and renal function after kidney transplantation: an experimental study
2003
Abstract The increase of intra-abdominal pressure during laparoscopic techniques provokes oliguria and reduction of the renal blood flow (RBF). The aim of this study is to evaluate this effect during living donor nephrectomy and its influence in the ischemia–reperfusion syndrome and renal function after kidney transplantation. Autotransplantation was performed using 22 pigs (15 after conventional open nephrectomy and 7 after laparoscopic nephrectomy). During donor nephrectomy a significant reduction in RBF was observed in the laparoscopic group (70 mL/min) vs the open group (260 mL/min) ( P P P
