Laura’s Story

Site created on January 25, 2017

Laura Muller was involved in a vehicle accident in which her aorta and Vena cava were torn and the Isthmus between her horseshoe shaped kidneys was lacerated the Isthmus was removed and it was later found that a caylex on the kidney was leaking fluid into a cavity in the back therefore a drain was put into her side to relieve it. the other kidney had a convoluted ureter the physician at St Joseph could not see on the scan behind the convoluted ureter very well so he thought someone from Barnes possibly a tertiary specialist surgical nephrologist would be needed to do the repairs on the kidney
