Repair of an Autologous Saphenous Vein Graft Aneurysm Ten Years after Renal Artery Reconstruction during Live Donor Renal Transplantation.
Saphenous vein graft (SVG) aneurysms (SVGA) after renal transplantation represents a rare vascular complication with subsequent challenging multidisciplinary treatment. We present a case of a 30-year-old female who received a live donor kidney transplantation for end-stage renal disease that was caused due to the hemolytic uremic syndrome. Postoperatively, an insufficient graft perfusion due to an arterial kinking was noted and repaired using an autologous SVG interposition. Ten years later, a 3-cm aneurysm of the SVG at the anastomotic site with the common iliac artery was discovered. Multidisciplinary surgical exploration with excision of the aneurysm-carrying vein graft and interposition of a new autologous SVG was successfully carried out with preservation of renal allograft's function. Treatment of SVGA after rental transplantation with a new autologous SVG is challenging but feasible, requiring a multidisciplinary approach in order to guarantee successful rates and to prevent allograft loss.
