Abstract
- Background: Renal vein stenosis is uncommon following transplantation. We report acute renal vein stenosis post‐transplant treated with an endovascular stent and complicated by urinary obstruction from clot formation. Methods: Retrospective case report. Results: A 16‐year‐old female 3 years post‐transplant suffered anuria post‐stenting with renal ultrasound demonstrating obstructive clot in the collecting system, a previously unreported complication. Subsequent nephroureteral JJ stent placement resulted in high‐volume urine output. Conclusion: This article underscores the high index of suspicion required for renal vein stenosis following transplantation and the need to monitor urine output closely following stent placement.
