Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with ESRD. One rare complication after transplantation is the development of renal allograft compartment syndrome (RACS). We present a case of 1 patient who developed RACS due to compression of the transplant vein, which was then treated by salvaging the kidney transplant using urgent decompression surgery with mesh fascial closure. We postulate that this technique is safe and should be the treatment of choice for patients with RACS.
肾移植是终末期肾病患者的治疗选择。移植后一种罕见的并发症是肾移植腔室综合征(RACS)的发生。我们报告了 1 例因移植静脉受压导致 RACS 的患者,随后通过使用网片筋膜闭合紧急减压手术挽救移植肾。我们推测该技术是安全的,应成为 RACS 患者的治疗选择。
