In principle, the internal fistula after kidney transplantation is chosen to be closed, but patients who need auxiliary dialysis treatment after surgery should keep the internal fistula.
1. Do not need dialysis: If the patient is in good condition after kidney transplantation, the kidney function recovers well, no local infection occurs, and passes the acute rejection period smoothly, the patient does not need dialysis treatment after operation, he can choose to close the internal fistula with the advice of professional doctors.
2. Need dialysis: If the patient’s renal function is not recovered well after kidney transplantation, not restored to normal urination, the blood creatinine level is relatively high, and dialysis treatment is needed, the endocardial fistula should be retained.
Therefore, whether to keep or close the internal fistula after kidney transplantation mainly depends on the physical state of the patient after kidney transplantation, the recovery of renal function, and whether to follow up the dialysis treatment, etc. It is recommended to refer to the attending doctor’s therapeutic advice. If there is really no need to keep the internal fistula, we should cooperate with the doctor to close the internal fistula as soon as possible to reduce the heart load.
