- W2751399618 abstract "BACKGROUND:Vascular complications in renal transplant patients are a well-known issue in post transplant patient care. If malfunctioning of the renal transplant is suspected to be caused by vascular complications an early diagnosis and therapy is required to maintain the renal transplant. Computed tomography (CT), digital substraction angiography (DSA) and radioisotope renography are the gold standard imaging modalities to diagnose vascular complications. OBJECTIVE:To analyse the sensitivity and specificity of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in comparison to the standard imaging modalities CT, DSA and radioisotope renography in the diagnosis of vascular complications in renal transplant patients. Methods:A total of 33 renal transplant recipients with elevated kidney function parameters with initial diagnostic imaging between 2006 and 2017 were included in the study. The imaging studies and clinical data were analysed retrospectively. The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS was compared to CT, DSA and renal scintigraphy respectively which are classified as gold standard for diagnosis of vascular complications in renal transplant patients. Out of 23 patients 15 patients showed vascular complications in CT, DSA or radioisotope renography and in 15 out of 15 patients CEUS detected the vascular complication. RESULTS:CEUS showed a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 66.7%, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 71.4%, and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 100%. CONCLUSIONS:CEUS is a non-nephrotoxic and safe method for the initial imaging of vascular complications in renal transplant recipients. Compared to the gold standard imaging modalities CT, DSA and radioisotope renography CEUS shows a high sensitivity and NPV in detecting vascular complications. In cases with suspected stenosis of the transplant renal artery additional DSA might be needed." @default.
