Abstract:
:In conventionally described simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation with portoenteric drainage, renal revascularization is derived from the left iliac vessels and pancreatic revascularization, from the right iliac artery. A newer technique utilizing the right iliac artery as a single inflow to both organs is described in six patients herein. The technique is less time-consuming and tedious than the standard method, which involves dissection of both iliac vessels. Advantages include shortened dissection time and preservation of the contralateral side for future use.
