title: Angiographic evaluation of renal allografts.
abstract: In a material of 128 kidneys transplanted to 112 patients 361 angiographies have been carried out in early, as well as in late course. The method is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of rejection, particularly in the early posttransplantation period when the kidney does not function due to tubular necrosis. Angiography also has prognostic significance, and can therefore be of value when deciding if a graft should be removed or if continuous efforts should be made to save it.
