Repair of anatomic anomalies in a donor kidney's vascular structures requires prompt recognition of the aberrant condition and an appropriate repair technique that does not compromise transplant success. Our report describes a case of a saccular aneurysm of the donor kidney, renal artery, which was identified during harvesting and repaired on the back-table using a prosthetic patch derived from the excised lesion to cover the breach.

Abstract

Repair of anatomic anomalies in a donor kidney's vascular structures requires prompt recognition of the aberrant condition and an appropriate repair technique that does not compromise transplant success. Our report describes a case of a saccular aneurysm of the donor kidney, renal artery, which was identified during harvesting and repaired on the back-table using a prosthetic patch derived from the excised lesion to cover the breach. The long-term results were good. © 2011 by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
