Article Synopsis
- The study aims to assess the impact of a living donor kidney transplant program on the functional outcomes of kidney grafts in Spain, comparing results from living donors and different cohorts of deceased donors.
- The sample included over 1,300 kidney transplant patients, categorized into groups based on whether their transplants were from living or deceased donors, and when the transplant occurred relative to the implementation of the living donor program.
- Key findings indicate that patients receiving transplants from deceased donors after the living donor program showed higher BMI and longer ischemia times, while pretransplant urinary tract infections were more prevalent in the deceased donor group prior to the program.
Objective: We present the case of a patient with eosinophilic ureteritis.
Methods: The patient was admitted with pain on the right renal fossa, and after several imaging tests, a mass was found on the right ureter, compatible with urothelial neoplasia on the right ureter.
Results: Right nephroureterectomy was performed and the histopathological diagnosis was eosinophilic ureteritis
Conclusion: Eosinophilic ureteritis is a rare entity with an unclear etiology,which is not easily distinguished from urothelial tumours.
Objective: We report one case of a spontaneous resolution of a uretero-vaginal fistula, and we review the current diagnostic and therapeutic features of this condition in the literature.
Methods: We present the case of a 41-year-old woman who, during the late postoperative period of a radical hysterectomy, presented episodes of daily and nocturnal incontinence with episodic flank pain compatible with uretero-vaginal fistula.
Results: One month after diagnosis the patient does not report incontinence during day or night, and the lumbar pain has disappeared.
Objective: We present the case of a big retroperitoneal tumor that received the pathologic diagnosis of malignant fibrous histiocytoma. We also review the diagnostic and therapeutic features of this disease in the current literature.
