Renal transplantation into a valve bladder is not associated with an abnormally high rate of failure. Deterioration of graft function secondary to lower urinary tract dysfunction is uncommon, with the majority of patients able to use the unmodified native bladder as a receptacle for the transplanted kidney.
Vasoactive factors other than endothelin most likely contribute to reperfusion injury. Furthermore, the ultrasonic transit time flow probe accurately measures post-reperfusion renal blood flow and offers a practical method for assessing acute reperfusion injury, which may help to optimize immunosuppressive strategies to decrease allograft loss associated with delayed graft function.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
