The right renal vein (RRV) may be difficult to anastomose in right cadaveric kidney transplantation, especially in obese recipients in whom iliac vessels are deep. In this study, gain of length and feasibility in the presence of vascular variations obtained with three common techniques of renal vein augmentation--clamshell (CS), transverse closure of the inferior vena cava (TC), and cava conduit (CC)--were analyzed and compared to the Carrel-patch technique.
