Abstract
Obstruction of urine flow and urine leaks are potentially life-threatening complications in renal transplant patients. The diagnosis was difficult and definite treatment may be delayed. The clinical course of 10 renal transplant patients with urologic complications, discusses the limitations of the standard tests used to investigate such problems, and describes the role of percutaneous antegrade pyelography and nephrostomy drainage catheter placement as safe and accurate diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
