ABSTRACT
El autotrasplante renal es un procedimiento quirúrgico poco frecuente, especialmente, cuando el paciente tiene un solo riñón funcional y su indicación es alguna anormalidad vascular compleja. En el presente artículo, se presenta un paciente a quien se practicó una nefrectomía más reconstrucción vascular ex vivo y autotrasplante renal. Además, se reporta su evolución hasta el octavo año después de la cirugía.
Renal autotransplantation is a surgical procedure performed with very low frequency, especially in cases in which the patient has a solitary kidney and in which the procedure is indicated by a vascular abnormality. In this article, we report the case of a 52 year-old patient undergoing a nephrectomy incision with ex-vivo repair of a renal aneurysm plus autotransplantation. Additionally, we report the evolution after surgery at the 8th year of follow up

Between 1940 and 1942, the Mexican delegation of the Junta for Aid to Spanish republicans founded and supported its own Medical-Pharmaceutical Department in Mexico City, formed by recently exiled Spanish professionals. It initially dealt with home medical care, charging for each medical service performed by specialists and each drug prescription. It later included a polyclinic with a staff of specialists and its own pharmacy. Finally, a small hospital and a laboratory for medical tests were planned, but circumstances prevented the project from getting under way. The study addresses the reasons for the birth of the Medical Pharmaceutical Service, its funding, organization and functioning, the professionals on whom it depended, its lines of action and its immediate projects. It also covers the main problems faced during its development and the reasons for its forced dissolution.
