Abstract
Iodohippurate renography and rapid serial scintigrams with pertechnetate were done in 27 allograft recipients in supine and standing positions. Posture-dependent iodohippurate transport and/or disturbance of pertechnetate flow pattern was found in 9 of those examined. Patients demonstrating these abnormalities were hypertensive. A causal relationship between posttransplant hypertension and the described posture-induced alterations of tracer transit.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
