Renal autotransplantation for managing a short upper ureter or after <i>ex vivo</i> complex renovascular reconstruction

Abstract

AT remains a treatment option for patients with a short ureter after ureteric injury and in those with renovascular disease. Patients had stable renal function and blood pressure after surgery. Most patients treated for renovascular disease required less medication after AT. The procedure is associated with both minor and major complications, which must be considered before surgery.
