الوصف: EKT from neonatal donors remains rare despite successful outcome being reported. The surgical aspects of neonatal abdominal organ recovery remain unfamiliar to the vast majority of abdominal organ recovery teams and renal transplant surgeons. BAH is not uncommon in newborn babies suffering distress in the perinatal period. BAH is often also associated with RVT and will impact on utilization of kidneys for transplantation. We present a case of a neonatal kidney donor with massive BAH s discovered at the time of organ recovery. This made the procurement challenging. Both kidneys were recovered en bloc with pancreas and the liver with aorta and inferior vena cave as vascular conduits. The kidneys were successfully implanted into an adult recipient with good function at 1‐year follow‐up. Association between adrenal hemorrhage and RVT needs to be considered before utilizing such kidneys. This case exemplifies successful outcome after careful assessment and transplantation of such kidneys.
