[Lymphocele after renal transplantation: therapeutic controversies in the age of laparoscopy].
We present 11 lymphoceles in 180 consecutive kidney transplants (6%). We study the potential etiologic factors, symptoms, diagnostic evaluation and treatment, stressing the role of laparoscopy in management of bulky and loculated symptomatic lymphoceles. This technique allows to reduce morbidity, increasing efficacy and shortening hospitalization.
