AB  - Because of the strong association between uremia and atherosclerosis, incidence 
      of aortic aneurysms is increasing among renal failure patients awaiting renal 
      transplantation (RT). Successful RTs have been performed in these patients after 
      surgical repair of the aneurysms. Since Parodi et al introduced endovascular 
      aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) in patients with high risk for conventional 
      surgery, a new era has begun. The 1st successful RT after EVAR was published in 
      2001. Herein we report the 1st successful RT after thoracic EVAR (TEVAR) reported 
      to date. We performed RT in a 54-year-old man with end-stage renal failure due to 
      diabetic nephropathy, who had undergone TEVAR for type B aortic dissection (TBAD) 
      6 months earlier. The postoperative period was uneventful and the patient was 
      discharged from the hospital at postoperative day 6 with a serum creatinine of 
      0.9 mg/dL. At follow-up examination at postoperative 6 months, graft function was 
      stable. Because of its advantages over open surgery, including low mortality and 
      morbidity, TEVAR is becoming more common among renal failure patients with 
      thoracic aortic aneurysms and TBAD. Our case shows that successful RT can be 
      performed in renal failure patients who have undergone TEVAR.
