title: The significance of the absence of 131I-Hippuran uptake by a kidney graft.
abstract: Anuria is a frequent complication during the immediate post-transplantation period in kidney transplant recipients. Radioisotopic studies with 131I-Hippuran and 99mTc-pertechnetate allow correct differentiation between viable and non-viable grafts.
