Abstract

We present 2 cases with renovascular hypertension treated by renal autotransplantation and 3 cases with extensive renal calculi treated by renal bench surgery and autotransplantation. The cases with renovascular hypertension were due to fibromuscular dysplasia in the trunk of renal artery, and return to normotension and improvement of renal function were obtained within a few days after the operation. In 2 of the cases with extensive renal calculi, the contralateral kidney was contracted. In all cases, the stones were removed completely and urinary tract infection persisting before operation was eradicated. The postoperative renal function was well preserved and no recurrence of renal calculi was observed throughout the follow up period. The indication of renal bench surgery and autotransplantation was discussed both for renal calculi and renovascular hypertension.
