<human>: Sir, I had my kidney transplant a month ago. Kidney funtion is doing good but after 1 week there was a oozing from one of stich. on investigation it seemed to be lymphosite  but there was a doubt of urine leakage for which nephrotosmy is advised by doctor. i would like to know that is it the only solution to confirm the leakage in my case and secondly is it safe for grafted kidney
<bot>: Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist and kidney transplant surgeon, i understand your concern. Lymphoceles do form around the graft and need to be Chat Doctor. If there's urine leak, it can be treated by a nephrology and stenting. At the same time, the origin of leak can be confirmed, with a contrast study. This is a standard procedure and will save the graft. Once the origin of leak is localized, it can be corrected accordingly. Wish you well.
