Özet
Here, we aimed to present a case of safe vaginal delivery in a renal transplant recipient and to mention the possible additional risks of caesarean section in such cases. A 40 year-old patient (G4P3), who had undergone renal transplantation 5 years ago, was admitted to our clinic at 392/7 weeks of pregnancy. The transplanted kidney at right iliac fossa was sonographically normal except for grade 1 hydronephrosis; the proximity of vascular anastomoses between the transplanted kidney and iliac vessels to the lower segment of the uterus was remarkable. There was no contraindication for vaginal delivery and it was believed that there would be a possible risk of injury to the transplanted kidney with caesarean delivery. The patient delivered a healthy baby weighing 3540 grams. There is a risk of injury to the renovascular and ureter anastomoses in renal transplant recipients during caesarean delivery. Normal vaginal delivery without abdominal compression is the safest method of deliverythese patients. If a situation that can necessitate internal iliac artery ligation or caesarean hysterectomy such as placenta accreata is expected, surgery should be performed in a centre where the renal transplant surgeon can oversee the surgery.
