Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the method of choice for the treatment of renal failure. After such surgery some complications may occur including rejection of the new organ. The vascular rejection may be acute and is associated with a reduction in the lumen of the artery due to the presence of inflammatory
exudate and chronic due to the dynamic proliferation of fibrous connective tissue in the inner membrane of the vessel. The aim of study was to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound in the diagnosis of vascular rejection of a transplanted kidney.
