[Renal transplantation on vascular prosthesis].

Progres en urologie : journal de l'Association francaise d'urologie et de la Societe francaise d'urologie, 2019
In front of a very calcified aortoiliac axis, renal transplantation with implantation of the artery on vascular prosthesis can be proposed. This rare intervention is considered difficult and morbid. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the overall and specific survival of the transplant in this situation.
