Objective: The aim of this study is to review retrospectively the surgical and urological complications encountered in 362 cases of living related donor kidney transplantations (LRDTs). Material and Methods: Between 1983 and 2002, 362 consecutive LRDTs were performed at our institution. The urological and surgical complications were determined in these cases. Results: Overall, urological and surgical complications were encountered in 57 (15.7%) of the renal transplants. Of the 362 patients, urological complications were detected in 29 of them (8.01%), including 5 urinary fistula (with 1 distal ureteral necrosis), 2 ureteric stenosis, 1 renal calculi, 8 symptomatic vesicoureteral reflux and 13 lymphocele requiring intervention. Vascular complications were developed in 5 patients such as renal vein thrombus in 1 and renal arterial stenosis in 4 cases. Wound infection was detected in 6 patients. Fourteen patients underwent surgical explorations due to perinephric hematoma during the early postoperative period. Renal allograft rupture due to accelerated rejection was developed in 2 cases. A lower segmental arterial injury occurred in 1 patient during the operation. Conclusion: LRDT is an important treatment alternative for patients with end-stage renal disease. Many complications may occur after renal transplantations. Our rate of complications is within the range of the current literature. After a modification of our surgical technique, as not dissecting the external iliac artery, the number of lymphoceles has decreased dramatically and with using ureteric stents, we detected a significant decrease in urinary complication rates.

The aim of this study was to analyze characteristics of patients with Peyronie's disease (PD) diagnosed during a standart evaluation for erectile dysfunction (ED) and compare them with patients presenting with the classical complaints of PD. During a 10-y period, a total of 448 patients were evaluated at our two outpatient clinics, directed by the same author (AK). They were divided into two groups: group I consisted of patients, who presented with only ED and were unaware of their penile deformity, and group II consisted of patients with the classical features of the disease. The clinical characteristics, penile deformities, erectile status and the presence of comorbidities were determined in the two groups. Of 448 Peyronie's patients, 16% ( n =71) were detected during diagnostic work-up for ED. In this group of patients, ED was the presenting symptom for a mean period of 31.3±9.7 months. The mean age of men was 57.54±8.75 and 52.21±10.27 y in groups I and II, respectively ( P =0.0001). The mean degree of deformity was 31.5±12.66° in group I and 41.16±19.14° in group II ( P =0.0001). In group I ( n =71), 69% ( n =49) of the patients had a poor erectile response to the combined injection and stimulation (CIS) test. Also, in this group, the mean degrees of deformity in CIS-positive and -negative patients were 27.05±12.50 and 33.80±12.03°, respectively ( P =0.033). Diabetes mellitus (40%) was the leading comorbidity in group I, while at least one comorbidity was observed in 73% of the cases ( P =0.001). A remarkable percent of Peyronie's patients (16%) were detected during a standard evaluation for ED. This study analyzed, for the first time, the frequency and the characteristics of incidentally diagnosed Peyronie's patients who presented with only ED. Our data indicate that one should always consider the possibility of PD in older patients with diabetes, presenting with only ED.

Between October 1988 and March 1990, 173 urinary stone patients (average age 38.3 years) were evaluated metabolically, especially with regard to urinary magnesium, pyrophosphate (Ppi) citrate and glycosaminoglycans (GAG). 25 healthy subjects served as controls. Inhibitory deficiency was found to be the most frequent causal factor in our series, with an incidence of 48.7% in first-time stone formers and 51.08% in recurrent urolithiasis (p less than 0.1). Deficient citrate levels were present in 46.56%, hypomagnesiuria in 24.4%, hypopyrophosphaturia in 10.7% and deficient GAG in 2.7% of the patients. Deficient urinary Ppi was seen in only 2.7% of the stone formers as the only metabolic defect, while deficient GAG was never the only causal factor. All 4 inhibitors showed no correlation with age, sex, activity of stone disease, stone weight and burden. There were no statistically significant differences with controls. We think that routine metabolic evaluation must be performed both in recurrent patients and first-time stone formers and must include urinary citrate and Mg determinations in every case. Urinary Ppi should be determined in selected cases and GAG determinations are irrational.
