Recovery of native renal function in patients with hepatorenal syndrome following combined liver and kidney transplant with Mercaptoacetyltriglycine-3 renogram: Developing a method... by Carina Aparici, Sukhkarn Bains, David Carlson, Jesse Qian, Douglas Liou, David Wojciechowski, Jacob Werner, Sana Khan, Cameron Kroll, Manreet Sandhu, Nhan Nguyen, Randall Hawkins

“…The renograms were analyzed by creating regions of interest around the transplanted and native kidneys. Relative contribution to the renal function, clearance, and effective renal plasma flow for the transplanted and native kidneys were obtained. 1/22 (4.5%) patients presented with a very poor functioning transplanted kidney, in 15/22 (68%) cases the combined native renal function was markedly poorer than the transplanted renal function and in 6/22 (27%) native kidneys showed a contribution to the renal function similar to the transplanted kidney. …”
