Clinical usefulness of 3-dimensional computerized tomographic renal angiography to detect transplant renal artery stenosis.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to evaluate whether 3-dimensional computerized tomographic angiography (3D-CTA) is useful to detect transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS). METHODS:Fourteen patients with clinically suspected TRAS underwent color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) and 3D-CTA before renal angiography. We compared 3D-CTA and CDU for accuracy based on the results of renal angiography. The safety of 3D-CTA was investigated by measuring the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) before and after the 3D-CTA examination. RESULTS:The 10 men and 4 women who participated in this study showed a mean eGFR of 75 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (range 60-94). Of these, 9 patients were diagnosed with TRAS. 3D-CTA detected stenoses in all 9 patients, but CDU failed to detect it in 3, including, 2 with end-to-side arterial anastomoses, which may be more challenging to detect compared with end-to-end anastomoses. The stenotic area in 3D-CTA was similar to that detected by renal angiography (70 ± 12 vs 68 ± 11). The eGFR did not differ significantly before versus after the 3D-CTA examination; 72 ± 13 vs 69 ± 14 mL/min/1.73 m(2). CONCLUSIONS:3D-CTA was an effective safe method to detect renal artery stenosis among transplant recipients with an eGFR >60 mL/min/1.73 m(2).
