Schema and image of reconstruction of the renal blood vessels. The two arteries at the middle of the renal hilum were reconstructed using the conjoined method, and the superior renal artery was lengthened using the donor’s gonadal vein (a). The renal arteries were reconstructed into one using the internal iliac artery graft (b). The superior two veins (1, 2) were reconstructed using the end-to-end method (c). d Representative images of the reconstruction. The yellow arrow shows the gonadal vein graft. The internal iliac artery graft was anastomosed to the original internal iliac artery (e), and the renal veins were anastomosed to the external iliac and gonadal veins (f)
