  • Title: Early transient hydronephrosis after laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass grafting.
    Author: Thaveau F, Dion YM, Warnier de Wailly G, Dumont M, Laroche B.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2003 Sep; 38(3):603-8. PubMed ID: 12947285.
    Abstract:
    Hydronephrosis early after aorto-bifemoral bypass grafting is probably an underestimated complication. We describe early and transient hydronephrosis that developed in two patients after totally laparoscopic aorto-bifemoral bypass surgery to treat aortoiliac occlusive disease. A conservative approach to treatment was adopted, and both patients recovered. We review the literature and discuss the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of this unusual form of hydronephrosis.
