  • Title: [Acute obstructive kidney failure after kidney transplantation caused by calculi transfer from donor].

    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 2003 Nov; 56(9):1047-50. PubMed ID: 14674293.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: To report one case of lithiasis transference from the donor associated with renal transplant. METHODS: 53-year-old female with obstructive uropathy within the first post transplant month. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: Lithiasis transference after transplant is a cause of early obstructive uropathy after kidney transplantation. The low the incidence of lithiasis transference does not justify the performance of x-ray and/or ultrasound of the donor organ in terms of cost effectiveness. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy is a valid therapeutic option on transplanted kidneys.
