Transplantaion of Kidney with Multiple Renal Arteries and their Effect on Graft Function

This study compares the results of kidney transplanation in multiple renal arteries kidneys with that of single arteri kidneys from living donors. In the years 1995-1999 twelve kidney transplantations with double renal arteries have been done. Twelve transplants with single renal arteri operated right before or after the study cases were chosen as controls. Immediate diuresis after the operation in both groups was 100% . Normal perfusion in post operative isotope scans was seen in all patients, and no thrombosis was observed in either group. The average blood pressure in the study group was 135/85mmHg before operation and 125/75mmHg 3 month post operation with significant decrease in both systolic (P=0.031) and diastolic (P=0.023)pressure. The average creatinine level 6 months after operation was 1.58mg/dl in the study group and 1.54mg/dl in the control group without any significant difference (p=0.89).Apparently kidneys with multiple renal arteries do not have any significant disadvantages on graft function.
