Abstract

hrirang Bichu

Delay in post-operative abdominal drain removal due to excessive lymphorrhoea can lead to prolonged hospital stay and increase in risk of infections in patients with kidney transplant. This study was designed to evaluate outcomes and cost effectiveness of early drain removal in renal transplant recipients with significant lymphorrhoea.
