Urological complications with and without double J stenting renal transplant patients - A single center experience

Aim: to compare the urological complications with and without dj stent in renal transplant patient. method: a total of 300 transplants were included in this study. these were divided into two groups,group a (n=150) with dj stent and group b (n=150) without dj stent. the two groups were randomized and urological complications were compared. results: these both groups were comparable regarding age,sex,serum creatinine level and follow up period. ureteric leakage was 0.66% in group a and 1.33% in group b. urinary tract infection was the main complication in both groups 8.0% and 6.0% in group a and group b respectively. discussion: urological complications in live renal transplant with and without dj stent were comparable in our study. our study shows that urinary leakage was low (o.66%) and (1.33%) in group a and group b respectively as compared to other studies where it was 2.9 to 21% (19). there was no significant different in group a and group b. conclusion: our study concluded that there was statistically no difference between two groups.
