Shortening a Carrel Patch in a Graft With Multiple Arteries: A
Step-By-Step Technical Analysis0
Objectives: Multiple renal arteries in donor kidneys are not a rare
entity. Whenever encountered, they pose a surgical challenge in renal
transplant because they require a more complicated back table vascular
reconstruction and implant technique. We devel-oped a unique
step-by-step in vivo illustration of the application of shortening a
Carrel (aortic) patch to address multiple arteries in deceased-donor
renal transplant.
Materials and Methods: Case report.
Results: We present the case of a 63-year-old man who received a left
kidney from a deceased donor with 2 arteries on a Carrel patch that were
anastomosed in a neopatch model.
Conclusions: A donor kidney with multiple arteries is a challenge before
arterial anastomosis. Various anastomotic patterns have been described
for this situation. Treatment of multiple arteries depends mainly on the
donor source (living or deceased), the characteristics of multiple
arteries, and the transplant surgeon's preference. When the length of
the aortic patch of a deceased donor is > 2.5 cm, the surgeon may
shorten it and form a neopatch to facilitate a single arterial
anastomosis to the recipient.
