Congenital bilateral iliac vein anomalies in a Nigerian pediatric kidney transplant recipient: A case report and literature review.

The finding of bilateral congenital common iliac vein anomalies is indeed uncommon. This article presents the case of an 11-year-old boy with end-stage renal disease who had kidney transplantation (KT). At presentation, he was found to have a large superficial vein running from the left groin over the suprapubic area.

Anatomical variations of the renal artery: a computerized tomographic angiogram study in living kidney donors at a Nigerian Kidney Transplant Center.

Background: Understanding of the renal vascular anatomy is key to a safe and successful donor nephrectomy, which ultimately impacts on the renal graft function and survival in kidney transplant recipients.

Objective: To report the various anatomical configurations of the renal artery identified in living kidney donors in a Nigerian kidney transplant institution.

Materials And Methods: The computerized tomography angiograms of 100 consecutive living kidney donors were prospectively reviewed over an 18-month period.
