The aim of this retrospective study, involving 909 renal transplants in 773 patients, was to determine the incidence of vascular complications. Four patients had isolated calf vein thrombosis (0.4%), 13 had ileofemoral thrombosis (1.4%), 3 had superficial vein thrombosis (0.3%), 10 developed pulmonary emboli (1.1%), 6 had renal vein thrombosis (0.66%), 3 had renal artery thrombosis (0.3%), 3 had renal artery stenosis, 2 patients developed anastomotic aneurysms and a further patient ruptured his arterial anastomosis. Cyclosporine has not increased the incidence of thrombosis since its introduction to the unit. |
