My grandson (19) had kidney surgery four days ago.  A blood vessel was wrapped around the outflow (?) tube and was choking off the urine flow, causing the kidney to have only 15? functionality at this point.  Surgeon felt kidney had some chance or repairing itself, thus put in a stent and will be checked in 6 weeks to see if surgery successful or if kidney still has to be removed.     Since surgery he is sweating profusely, is extremely hot (no temp, though).  Could this be as a result of the surgery?  Tring to regulate his blood pressure too, as it was extremely high which became known when the kidney problem was discovered.  Could there be something else going on with feeling so hot and sweating or is it a normal reaction to surgery?  Thanks
HelloThanks for query. Based on the facts that you have posted your grandson had diminished function of one kidney due to obstruction to flow of urine resulting from congenital abnormality called Retro Naval Ureter Surgery to correct this abnormality was performed 4 days ago since then he is sweating profusely. This could be mostly due to septicemia resulting from sudden release of bacteria from obstructed kidney in to general circulation. This is a common complication when obstructed urinary system is decompressed. There is nothing to be worried about. Giving adequate I. V fluids and appropriate antibiotic will help to tide over the crisis. Chat Doctor.
