Abstract

Introduction: The effect of multiple arterial anastomosis and different reconstruction techniques on the outcome of renal transplant recipients is not clearly defined. In this retrospective study, we report our experience of living donor kidney transplantation using allografts with multiple renal arteries, regarding the patient and graft survival, as well as surgical complications. Materials and Methods: Patients were divided into two groups according to the arterial anatomy of the renal allograft. While group I consisted of patients with single renal artery grafts, group II included patients with multiple renal artery grafts. Results were compared between single and multiple artery groups and further analyzed between the groups, which were constituted according to vascular reconstruction technique. Results: Forty-five patients (15.7%) had grafts with multiple renal arteries. The mean total ischemia time was longer in multiple renal artery group (90.8Ü7.3 vs. 71.9±16.6 minutes, p<0.001). The mean serum creatinine level at posttransplant one year was significantly higher in multiple artery group than in single renal artery group (1.74±0.45 vs.l.46±0.44 mg/dl), but it was similar at fifth year. There was no significant difference between the groups with regard to mean systolic blood pressure, the incidence of acute tubular necrosis and acute rejection, vascular and urological complications, graft and patient survival rates. Similar findings were obtained in patients with multiple arteries whose anastomosis were performed with different reconstruction techniques. Conclusion: Our data shows that transplantation of the kidney with multiple arteries is safe. Any reconstruction technique can be chosen according to the vascular anatomy of the graft and the recipient.

Özet

Böbrek nakli alıcılarında birden çok böbrek arteri anastomozu ve değişik anastomoz tekniklerinin sonuca etkisi net olarak tanımlanmamıştır. Çalışmamızda, retrospektif olarak birden çok böbrek arteri olan allogreftlerle canlı vericili böbrek naklinin hasta ve greft sağkalımı ile cerrahi istenmeyen yan etkilerini incelemeyi amaçladık. Hastalar böbrek allogrefti arter sayışma göre iki gruba ayrıldı. Grup I'deki hastalarda tek böbrek arteri, Grup IF deki hastalarda birden fazla böbrek arteri mevcuttu, gruplar birbiriyle karşılaştırıldı. Ayrıca Grup II kendi içinde vasküler rekonstrüksiyon tekniklerine göre incelendi. 45 hastada (%15.7) birden çok böbrek arteri olan allogreft mevcuttu. Ortalama total iskemi zamanı birden çok böbrek arteri grubunda daha uzundu (90.8Ü7.3 - 71.9Ü6.6 dakika, p<0.001). Böbrek nakli sonrası 1. yılda ortalama serum kreatinin değeri birden çok böbrek arteri grubunda anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (1.74±0.45 -1.46±0.44 mg/dl) ancak 5. yılda sonuçlar benzerdi. Gruplar arasında ortalama sistolik kan basıncı, akut tübüler nekroz ve akut rejeksiyon sıklığı, ürolojik istenmeyen yan etkiler, hasta ve greft sağkalımı açısından anlamlı fark saptanmadı. Farklı anastomoz teknikleri ile rekonstrüksiyon yapılan hastalarda da benzer sonuçlar mevcuttu. Deneyimimiz çok arterli böbrek naklinin güvenli olduğunu göstermektedir. Greft vasküler anatomisi ve alıcıya bağlı olarak farklı rekonstrüksiyon teknikleri başarıyla uygulanabilir.
