Abstract
Surgical complications are not uncommon after renal transplantation. They should always be in the differential diagnosis of renal graft dysfunction. While ruling out or confirming a surgical cause of graft dysfunction, a sequential approach should be undertaken starting from clinical examination and moving on to more invasive investigations as the clinical picture becomes clearer. Biochemical assay of drain fluid is important. Causes of a collection around/near the graft include abscess, hematoma, urinoma and lymphocele. Treatment of each of them is different.
