Article Synopsis
  • Inverted kidney transplantation (KT) is a technique that has been implemented in various centers, but there has previously been limited data on its outcomes.
  • A study involving 74 patients at Viet Duc University Hospital revealed that most transplants were ipsilateral, with only a few performed in special cases, and found the operation time was longer but kidney function remained stable post-surgery.
  • The technique showed a high 3-year graft survival rate of 98.3%, with complications comparable to traditional KT, indicating it is a safe option under specific conditions.

Background: Short harvested right renal veins (RV) are quite common in living donor kidney transplantation (KT). This technical difficulty might interfere implanting and increase warm ischemic time. Several techniques to overcome this problem have been applied, including iliac vein transposition, inverted transplant, synthetic graft, saphenous vein… Application of accompanying gonadal vein (GV), which is easily approachable and less time-consuming, has been recently published.

Background: SMA-first approach in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has been widely applied in open surgery as well as laparoscopy. Finding the superior mesenteric artery (SMA), inferior pancreatoduodenal artery (IPDA), first jejunal artery (J1A) has become a great challenge in laparoscopic PD (LPD). Meanwhile, exposing the midde colic artery (MCA) might be a feasible approach to determine SMA, IPDA, and J1A.

Introduction: Hepatic lymphorrhea (HL) is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening type of postoperative lymphatic leakage, especially following pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Case Presentation: We herein report a case series of four patients with HL following pancreaticoduodenectomy that presented to the department with a severe clinical picture with the discovery in imaging and intraperitoneal fluid's tests. All our patients presented with a condition of Hepatic lymphorrhea secondary to pancreaticoduodenectomy, which were treated successfully with percutaneous hepatic lymphangiography (HLG).
