Abstract
Renal autotransplantation with or without an extracorporeal renal operation was performed 45 times upon 43 patients. Twenty-one patients underwent renal autotransplantation as surgical treatment for renovascular hypertension, all of whom are cured or have improved postoperatively. Sixteen renal autotransplants were performed upon 14 patients with extensive ureteral disease, 14 of which were successful. Six patients with carcinoma centrally located in a solitary kidney underwent extracorporeal partial nephrectomy and autotransplantation. Three of these patients are alive with functioning autografts and are tumor-free from one to five years postoperatively. Two patients with multiple recurrent renal calculi were successfully treated by extracorporeal pyelolithotomy and autotransplantation with pyelovesicostomy. An extracorporeal renal operation and autotransplantation can provide the best solution for selected urologic problems not correctable by conventional methods.
