A cadaveric renal transplant was performed on a 63-year-old woman. The donor renal artery and vein were anastomosed to the recipient external iliac vessels using the vascular clipping system. These vascular anastomoses were performed with four stay sutures and several clips for each anastomosis, without a continuous vascular suture. The time taken was 8 min for each anastomosis. There were no postoperative complications and the patient went home after 6 days in the hospital. At 1 month follow-up her serum creatinine was 1.3 mg/dl. We conclude that cadaveric renal transplantation can be performed using clips for the vascular anastomoses. This technique permits an expeditious, interrupted anastomosis. Since the arcuate legged clips are nonpenetrating, there is minimum trauma to the vascular intima. In pediatric transplantation this interrupted technique may be of special importance, since it should allow the anastomoses to grow with time. The ability to quickly perform this type of anastomosis may reduce warm ischemia time as well. The safety and technical ease of this technique should allow its application in the anastomosis of other tubular structures as well. This might further improve the currently excellent outcomes of solid organ transplantation.
