  • Title: [A right kidney autotransplant after inferior cavectomy].
    Author: Hernández Fernandez C, Moncada Iribarren I, Herranz Amo F, Jara Rascón J, Escribano Patiño G.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1992 Mar; 45(2):105-8. PubMed ID: 1567251.
    Abstract:
    We investigated the feasibility of diverting blood supply from the right kidney after resection of the vena cava by autotransplantation to the right iliac fossa. The experiment was conducted in 10 mini-pigs that had previously undergone partial ligation of the vena cava to produce collateral circulation. Although a good collateral circulation had developed, it was not sufficient to drain the complementary venous supply (right kidney). All the animals developed venous thrombosis and, consequently, irreversible renal failure.
