Mechanisms of kidney disease in Sneddon's syndrome: Case report and literature review 
.
We report a case of Sneddon's syndrome with chronic kidney disease, associated with features of endarteritis obliterans in the skin and the kidney. The clinical presentation of our patient is compared to previously reported cases of Sneddon's syndrome with biopsy-proven kidney disease. We also discuss the differential diagnosis, pathophysiological mechanisms, relationship with antiphospholipid syndrome, and management of patients with Sneddon's syndrome and kidney disease. This clinical observation supports the systemic nature of Sneddon's syndrome and provides insights into the mechanisms by which this rare but probably u...

Summary: International Kidney Cancer Symposium
Conclusions:  Ideal ischemia time is 20-25 minutes or less improves short and long term renal function.  >25 minutes carried 5 year risk of new onset stage 4 CKD No differences on GFR for cold vs. warm ischemia times Preoperative GFR and the percent of kidney preserved was a better predictor of post op GFR.  No ischemia preserves renal function better than warm. Longer cold ischemia times were equivalent to shorter warm ischemia times. Quality and quantity of the remaining kidney is associated with ultimate renal function.
