Abstract

Both congenital and acquired recipient anatomy can present a significant challenge to renal transplantation. A patient with congenital aortic atresia and limited dialysis access options presented to our institution for consideration of transplant. Through multidisciplinary planning, a strategy to accommodate the patient's variant anatomy was devised and successfully performed. A deceased donor vessel graft was used as conduit in combination with the recipient hepatic artery for renal graft inflow.
