Post-Transplant Lymphoceles: A Critical Look into the Risk Factors, Pathophysiology and Management
TL;DR: It is concluded that allograft rejection is the most significant factor contributing to the development of lymphoceles and therapy of symptomatic lymphOceles should be individualized according to the presence or absence of infection.

Incidence, therapy, and consequences of lymphocele after sirolimus-cyclosporine-prednisone immunosuppression in renal transplant recipients
Robert M. Langer,Barry D. Kahan +1 more
TL;DR: Addition of sirolimus to a CsA-Pred regimen resulted in both a higher incidence and a requirement for more aggressive treatment of perinephric fluid collections and lymphoceles.

Postoperative pelvic lymphocele: treatment with simple percutaneous catheter drainage.
TL;DR: Percutaneous catheter drainage is safe and effective for treatment of symptomatic postoperative lymphoceles in patients who had undergone radical pelvic lymphadenectomy because of uterine malignancy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiologic imaging and percutaneous treatment of pelvic lymphocele
TL;DR: Percutaneous treatment preferably with sclerotherapy should be considered as the first-line treatment modality for pelvic lymphoceles due to its effectiveness, widespread applicability on an outpatient basis, ease of procedure and low complication rate.

Experience with lymphoceles after renal transplantation.
TL;DR: Of 215 patients who underwent renal transplantations at the Mayo Clinic, six (2.8 percent) developed perirenal lymphoceles; excretory urography with tomography delineated the lymphocele in each instance; B scan ultrasound may be an additional valuable diagnostic tool.

Postoperative pelvic lymphocysts.
TL;DR: It is obvious from lymphangiographic studies that surgical interruption of the lymphatic channels of the pelvis is the cause of the complication, with both incidence and severity proportional to the degree of injury.
