Abstract
GIRON, Fernando; BAEZ, Yenny and AMAYA, Javier. Renal autotransplantation in a patient with renal artery aneurysm and a single functional kidney. rev. colomb. cir. [online]. 2019, vol.34, n.1, pp.87-93. ISSN 2011-7582. https://doi.org/10.30944/20117582.103.
Renal autotransplantation is a surgical procedure performed with very low frequency, especially in cases in which the patient has a solitary kidney and in which the procedure is indicated by a vascular abnormality. In this article, we report the case of a 52 year-old patient undergoing a nephrectomy incision with ex-vivo repair of a renal aneurysm plus autotransplantation. Additionally, we report the evolution after surgery at the 8th year of follow up.
