Pancreatic graft survival after arterial thrombosis in simultaneous renal‐pancreatic transplantation

Abstract

Vascular thrombosis following pancreas transplantation is one of the main causes of early graft loss. Successful thrombectomy after pancreatic graft thrombosis has not been reported yet. A patient with arterial graft thrombosis in whom the graft survived after thrombectomy is described. Different varieties of pancreatic graft thrombosis are discussed.
