Transplantation of a Kidney With Duplicated Ureter Harvested From a Donor With Vascular Anomaly in the Form of Double Inferior Vena Cava: A Case Report.

Abstract:

:During the organ procurement procedure, a surgeon encounters anatomic anomalies not very often but also not uncommonly. These changes may put the success of the transplant into question. Despite the thorough diagnosis of the potential donor, these anomalies are often diagnosed during organ donation. In our paper we present a case of kidney transplantation with duplicated ureter. The organ was collected from a donor with duplicated inferior vena cava. After transplantation, the kidney functioned immediately. Taking into consideration the well-being of the recipient, organs with anatomic abnormalities should be carefully considered for transplantation. This is especially important when there is a constant shortage of organs for transplantation.
