Abstract

In the present note, a case with rising serum creatinine shortly posttransplantation was referred for 99mTc-DTPA scan. The previous nonfunctioning renal allograft in the left hemipelvis showed no finding during dynamic phase of scan and filling phase of bladder but revealed a high-grade vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in postvoid image, which can be responsible, partly, for the patient's present and prior symptoms.
