Chronic progressive renal function loss is a main cause of long-term graft loss after initially successful renal transplantation. Transplanted kidneys share some risk factors for renal function loss, such as hypertension or proteinuria, with diseased native kidneys. Recently, it has been shown that renal function loss is influenced by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) (insertion/deletion ...

Background: Vaginal aplasia is a rare congenital anomaly with different surgical techniques suggested for vaginal reconstruction.McIndoe vaginoplasty is an easy one of these surgical methods with a low morbidity rate, but its long-term results need to be further investigated. Therefore, the female genital anatomy and sexual function was examined afte...

OBJECTIVES To determine the best approach for live donor nephrectomy to minimise discomfort to the donor and to provide good graft function. DESIGN Single blind, randomised controlled trial. SETTING Two university medical centres, the Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS 100 living kidney donors. INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomly assigned to either laparoscopic donor nephrectomy or to mini ...

Background: Hamstring and peroneus longus tendon auto graft has similar biomechanical strength. Peroneus is a potential in reconstructive orthopaedic procedures. There was few study evaluation of usage ACL reconstruction. We aimed to quantify the outcome donor site morbidity reconstruction using graft.Methods: Patients who suffered isolated injury were enrolled underwent trans-portal single bun...

INTRODUCTION Impaired renal function and/or pre-existing atherosclerosis in the deceased donor increase the risk of delayed graft function and impaired long-term renal function in kidney transplant recipients. CASE PRESENTATION We report delayed graft function occurring simultaneously in two kidney transplant recipients, aged 57-years-old and 39-years-old, who received renal allografts from t...
