Simultaneous single-incision bilateral native nephrectomy and kidney transplant had high complication rates. Laparoscopic staged nephrectomy before kidney transplant is a safer alternative for patients with end-stage renal disease.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Transplantation Surgery

Background:

  • Simultaneous single-incision bilateral native nephrectomy with renal transplantation is a less invasive surgical approach.
  • Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease is a common indication for native nephrectomy prior to renal transplantation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the safety and efficacy of simultaneous single-incision bilateral native nephrectomy and renal transplantation versus staged laparoscopic bilateral nephrectomy followed by kidney transplantation.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 11 patients undergoing simultaneous single-incision bilateral native nephrectomy and renal transplantation (Group 1).
  • Comparison with 7 patients undergoing staged laparoscopic bilateral nephrectomy followed by kidney transplantation (Group 2).

  • Analysis of perioperative complications, reoperations, and graft outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • Group 1 experienced significant perioperative complications, including bowel injury, transplant urine leak, and pancreatitis.
    • 63.6% of Group 1 patients required additional surgical procedures for complications like incisional hernia and fistulas.
    • One Group 1 patient lost the graft due to complications; Group 2 had no major complications, reoperations, or graft loss.

    Conclusions:

    • Simultaneous single-incision bilateral native nephrectomy and renal transplantation is associated with a high rate of complications and reoperations.
    • Staged laparoscopic bilateral nephrectomy followed by kidney transplantation presents a safer and feasible alternative for native kidney removal in renal transplant recipients.
