Abstract
Short donor renal artery during nephrectomy poses a technical challenge. We present a main renal artery (RA) reconstruction case in Living-donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) using an extension polytetrafluoroethylene vascular graft(PTFE). A 57-year-old man received LDKT from his son. Postlaparoscopic donor nephrectomy, a PTFE graft was used to reconstruct the short RA. Excellent reperfusion, good renal turgor, and immediate urine production were noted. Serial Doppler assessments on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7 and 180 confirmed good blood flow. The PTFE graft did not cause any additional morbidity or complications related to kidney transplantation.
