  • Title: Homotransplant renal artery stenosis.
    Author: Doyle TJ, McGregor WR, Fox PS, Maddison FE, Rodgers RE, Kauffman HM.
    Journal: Surgery; 1975 Jan; 77(1):53-60. PubMed ID: 1089000.
    Abstract:
    Transplant renal artery stenosis occurred in 12 of 101 consecutive kidney transplants. Stenoses were all located in the renal artery distal to the anastomosis. Two separate forms of stenosis are recognized: angulation and segmental. All transplant patients with severe diastolic hypertension, refractory to medical management, and an audible abdominal bruit should undergo angiography. Surgical correction of the stenosis was accomplished in nine of 12 patients with cure of their hypertension.
