Frequently Asked Questions
What urologic conditions can develop after a kidney transplant?
Kidney transplant recipients can develop a range of urologic complications, including ureteral strictures, urinary leaks, lymphoceles, and recurrent urinary tract infections. Early identification and treatment are critical to protecting the transplanted organ. Dr. Miller evaluates and manages these issues to help preserve long-term graft function.
Does Dr. Miller see patients who are being evaluated as living kidney donors?
Yes. Living donor evaluation often includes a thorough urologic assessment to confirm that donation is safe and that the remaining kidney will function well. Dr. Miller can assess anatomy, stone history, and other urologic factors that may affect donor eligibility.
What happens if I develop a ureteral stricture after my kidney transplant?
A ureteral stricture is a narrowing of the ureter that can obstruct urine flow from the transplanted kidney. Treatment options range from minimally invasive endoscopic procedures to surgical reconstruction, depending on severity and location. Prompt treatment is important to prevent permanent damage to the graft.
Can pre-existing urologic conditions disqualify someone from receiving a kidney transplant?
Not necessarily. Many urologic conditions, such as bladder dysfunction or a history of kidney stones, can be managed or treated prior to transplant listing. A urologic evaluation helps the transplant team understand any risks and develop a plan to optimize the patient's urinary tract before surgery.
