In kidney transplant recipients, the renal artery stenosis is cause of graft dysfunction and graft loss. Here we describe a case that leads to graft loss. The nephrologist should know about its etiologies, symptoms and diagnostic tools and also its treatment after renal transplantation.

Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is a potentially treatable cause of allograft dysfunction, hypertension and graft loss. The mainstay of treatment includes angioplasty and endovascular stenting, although observation and surgery are at times indicated. We present an unusual case of TRAS secondary to mechanical compression from a patient’s enlarged native polycystic kidneys. This was treated with bilateral native nephrectomy and evidence of TRAS improved both clinically and radiographically. Recognition and treatment is important in preventing irreversible complications of TRAS.
