Do Anatomical Anomalies Affect the Results of Living Donor Kidney Transplantation?

Presence of single renal vessels was not a predictor of immediate graft function in living-donor kidney transplantation. Transplantation outcomes for kidneys with anatomical anomalies did not differ when compared to organs with typical anatomy. Multiple renal arteries did not impact initial graft function if precise surgical technique and proper preoperative diagnostics were provided.
