We compared long-term outcomes of LDKT in pediatric recipients following either laparoscopic (LDN) or ODN. In our retrospective single-center study, we compared 38 pediatric LDKT recipients of a laparoscopically procured kidney with a historic ODN group comprising 17 pediatric recipients. In our center, the first pure laparoscopic non-hand-assisted LDN for a pediatric LDKT recipient was performed in June 2001.

- The case report describes a 64-year-old woman with delayed diagnosis of incorrectly placed screws during spinal surgery, which resulted in a perforation of the thoracic aorta.* -
- The surgery initially involved stabilizing her spine due to multiple myeloma-related collapse, but after two years, she experienced severe back pain and diagnostic imaging revealed the issue.* -
- A complex, interdisciplinary two-phase operation was conducted to address the malpositioning, involving thoracotomy and reinstrumentation of the spine while carefully managing the risk of vascular injury.*
Objectives: To evaluate the functional outcomes and complications after allogeneic kidney transplantation into recipients with a urinary conduit using ureteroureterostomy between the transplant and native ureter.
Methods: We performed a retrospective study of 6 patients with a pre-existing urinary conduit undergoing kidney transplantation at a single tertiary academic center from May 1982 to February 2007.
Results: The study included 1 female and 5 males aged 16 to 65 years.
