Abstract
The problem of chronic lymphoceles in the transplant patient is reported in 3 cases. Surgical correction of the obstruction to the renal artery or ureter is greatly facilitated by the recognition of this clinical entity and the use of intraoperative radiographic studies to distinguish these pseudoencapsulated cysts from the true renal pelvis. The use of sterile milk aids in the demonstration of the anastomotic patency of the watertight closure.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
