Abstract: syndrome needing fasciotomy without lasting disability.Median hospital stay was 6 days.At 3 months, all patients were free of indwelling stents, pain or hematuria and showed good vascularisation and absence of hydronephrosis of the autograft on ultrasound.Nuclear DMSA and Cr-EDTA scans 3 months postop showed no transplant kidney function loss in 5, a significant GFR drop in 2 and a significant GFR increase in 3 autotransplants.CONCLUSIONS: We describe the first series of a minimal invasive technique for KAT.RAKAT is a promising approach to salvage kidneys in selected patients with complex and disabling ureteral or renal pathology.RAKAT resolves the disabling symptoms and results in good function of the autotransplant at 3 months.
