Role of radiological evaluation in post-renal transplant patients: Case series

Abstract

Continued improvements in graft survival have led to widespread acceptance of renal transplantation as the preferred treatment for the majority of patients with end-stage renal disease. The long-term care of these patients is often provided away from transplantation centre. This article presents clinical and imaging features of few cases with renal transplantation complications .Ultrasound can accurately depict and characterize many of the potential complications of renal transplant and increasingly CT & magnetic resonance imaging also facilitates this role. In addition, interventional radiologic techniques allow nonsurgical treatment.
