  • Title: [Duplex sonography in postoperative monitoring of pancreatic transplants--initial experiences].
    Author: Pöllmann H, Wallner B, Wanjura D.
    Journal: Ultraschall Med; 1989 Dec; 10(6):303-6. PubMed ID: 2696090.
    Abstract:
    Duplex ultrasound has gained importance in postoperative monitoring of renal transplants; however, there is no published data on its value in pancreatic transplants. The present study reports on simultaneous pancreatic and renal transplantation of two patients submitted to Duplex scan and conventional ultrasound. During intervals without clinical evidence of complications continuous systolic/diastolic flow was observed. In one case of acute pancreatic rejection Duplex sonography delineated significant reduction of diastolic flow paralleling morphological changes in US. Therefore, relevance of clinical exploration and diagnostic US may be increased by supplementary use of duplex ultrasound.
