Successful transplantation of ectopic kidneys from living related donors.
Two ectopic pelvic kidneys were transplanted from living donors into well matched recipients. Both kidneys have good function at two and four years post transplantation and there has been no evidence of infection post transplantation. Such kidneys can be utilized when there is no evidence of obstruction or infection in the donor and when the contralateral kidney is normal.
