Blainey and associates (2) detected low levels of urinary antigen by complement fixation in each of seven transplant recipients without reference to renal function or prior bilateral nephrectomy, therefore, not excluding the in-situ end-stage kidneys as the source of antigenuria. The only previous report of antigenuria measured by radioimmunoassay in a transplant patient with prior bilateral nephrectomy links an adequately functioning allograft to intermittent passage of urinary...References1.
