How deceased donor transplantation is impacting a decline in commercial transplantation-the Tamil Nadu experience.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Kidney grafts with multiple renal arteries have been considered a relative contraindication because of the increased risk of complications. In the present study, we retrospectively reviewed multiple renal artery reconstruction in kidney transplantation to elucidate the usefulness of these grafts. METHODS:Fr...
