Περίληψη:
Ischemia–reperfusion injury can be detrimental to the solitary kidney,
especially when it is accompanied by ablation. To the authors”
knowledge, the effects of partial nephrectomy with prolonged application
of ischemia have never been described at the ultrastructural level.
Therefore, the authors used an animal model and focused on putative
structural effects in the glomerular basement membrane and the
podocytes. They demonstrate the advantageous role of cold ischemia, even
in up to 120 min. In contrast, more than 60 min of warm ischemia leads
to catastrophic lesions in all the cellular structures, as is reflected
by mortality due to acute renal failure.
