title: [Role of celioscopy in the treatment of lymphocele after transplantation].
abstract: Lymphoceles can be observed after renal transplantation. Sometimes lymphoceles can cause symptoms (renal insufficiency, pain). In these cases they require surgical treatment. From january 92 to december 1993 seven patients with complicated lymphoceles were treated. Simple drainage with injections of polyvidone iodine was used in 4 cases without effect. Surgical drainage was performed in 5 cases with complete disappearance of the pouch (on open surgical procedure, four celioscopic procedures). Celioscopic marsupialization of lymphoceles after transplantation is a method of choice and is preferred to open surgery for lymphoceles which develop internally.
