To assess ischemia-reperfusion injury of renal allograft by microdialysis. A pilot, single-center; prospective study. The study included 7 patients (4 males and 3 females, average age was 46.71 ± 6.53 years) after cadaveric kidney allograft transplantation (CKA) under general combined anaesthesia. Microdialysis provides an opportunity of continuous monitoring of metabolic changes in the tissue of transplanted kidney. The main advantage of the monitoring by microdialysis is an opportunity of early identifying of ischemia-reperfusion complications. Thus, early assessment of CKA by microdialysis can be for the improving of patient's treatment in the early post operative period. Further clinical studies must be done to define the role of microdialysis.
