Robot assisted kidney transplantation
However, there are technical difficulties in performing a laparoscopic operation in transplant recipients. Using a robotic system to help in the operation may allow us to overcome these problems, and perform a less invasive procedure. The operation is likely to be longer than a conventional transplant, taking around three hours on average, compared with two and a half hours for traditional open...
متن کاملPediatric kidney transplantation: An overview

Improvements in immunosuppressive management have dramatically reduced the risk of early acute rejection and graft loss, however the long term results in terms of graft survival and morbidity still require search for new immunosuppressive regimens. Reducing of side effects are the challenges for impr...
متن کاملTotal Preperitoneal Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation
To date, kidney transplant recipients have always undergone open surgery. The type and length of the wound vary, but most commonly, a modified Gibson's incision is made in the lower abdomen for the transplantation. Risk factors for wound complications are well defined in general surgery literature. The laparoscopic kidney transplantation (LKT) technique has been developed recently, and several ...
متن کاملProgress in pediatric kidney transplantation
Significant progress has been made in pediatric kidney transplantation. Advances in immunosuppression have dramatically decreased rates of acute rejection leading to improved short term graft survival but similar improvements in long term graft survival remain elusive. Changes in allocation policy provide the pediatric population with timely access to transplant but there remains concern about ...
متن کاملKidney Transplantation in Iran
Kidney transplantation in patients with end stage renal disease is preferred to dialysis because transplantation provides a better quality of life andimproved survival. However, the gap between the supply and demand for a renal allograft is widening and the waiting time is increasing. Iranian protocol, a controlled transplant program supported by the government for living unrelated donors, was ...
