Abstract:
Objective To explore the methods for treating no-functioning renal graft.Methods The management of 240 cases of non-functioning renal graft between 1978 and December 2003 was retrospectively analyzed.Results Twenty-nine recipients with renal failure one month after renal transplantation were subjected to removal of the renal graft. One year after renal transplantation, the recipients with renal failure received resection of the renal graft, 4 were treated with renal artery embolism, and 114 did not receive special treatment.Conclusion The non-functioning renal graft required removal at early stage of renal transplantation. At later stage, no symptomatic cases of post-transplanted renal failure required no management after stopping immunosuppressant. The appropriate management is reserved for the symptomatic cases.
