Abstract
- Forty-two patients with lymphatic dysplasia were examined by hippuran iodine 131 renograms. The patients all had clinical and lymphangiographic proof of lymphatic dysplasia. None of the patients were hypertensive.
- Of the 84 kidneys studied, 17 handled the hippuran in normal fashion with only 7 patients showing bilaterally normal renograms.
- Abnormal tracings were categorized as mild in 44 kidneys, moderate in 16 kidneys, and severe in 7 kidneys, many of which could have been confused with nephrosclerosis or renal artery stenosis.
