Simultaneous bilateral native nephrectomy by retroperitoneal approach

Abstract: The indication for simultaneous bilateral native nephrectomy and the choice of surgical technique is of key importance, as these patients are burdened with a large comorbidity. The paper reports our experience of seven successful and completed simultaneous bilateral native nephrectomy procedures with retroperitoneal approach in the patient's flank position.Seven patients (mean age 34), were indicated for the removal of both kidneys before the planned transplant. Six patients underwent haemodialysis from 48 to … Show more

“…Complications related to laparoscopy and open surgery occurred in 17 (34 %) of patients like thrombocytopenia, fever, hyperkalemia, hypertension, ileus, pneumonia, pneumothorax, septic shock, SSI, hyperglycemia, bleeding and PONV were reported. The advantages of laparoscopy in reducing the postoperative pain, a shorter hospital stay, earlier return to normal activities, and improved cosmetic compared with the open approach are well documented [15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

“…Further advantages include ease of kidney access by developing the existing potential retroperitoneal space and avoidance of the transperitoneal approach with the resultant reduced risk of injury to and interference from intra-abdominal organs. 16 Pre-transplant screening for cancer in the native kidney is controversial. However, it has been advocated as RCC has been reported to be bilateral in 20% of ESRD patients.…”
