Abstract
The use of multiple arteries in renal allografts does not adversely affect patient or graft survival. It is not associated with an increased rate of complications except for significantly higher mean serum creatinine at 1 year. Extracorporeal bench surgery was as effective as intracorporeal surgery for the anastomosis of multiple renal arteries with no increase in the incidence of relevant complications.
