[Therapy of urologic complications in 210 consecutive kidney transplantations].
The results of 210 consecutive renal transplant operations between 1969 and 1989 were assessed with respect to urological complications. 17 patients had urological problems. 4.7% of the patients had ureteric complications (obstruction or leakage). 2.8% of this series showed other general urological complications like bladder bleeding, extravasation at the ureterovesical anastomosis and bladder leakage. One patient had interstitial cystitis and an anastomosis of the transplant ureter with an ileal conduit was performed. Ureteric complications were managed in all cases by revisional surgery, excision of the affected segment followed by ureteroneocystostomy or uretero-/pyeloureterostomy. Bladder bleeding and extravasation at the ureterovesical anastomosis were treated by transurethral and percutaneous drainage procedures. Open surgery was necessary for great bladder leakage. In all cases the function of the transplant kidney could be maintained.
