a Renal MAG-3 scintigraphy performed on admission demonstrated slow staining of the right kidney; however, MAG-3 did not wash out even at 66 min after injection, indicating that while renal perfusion was sustained, it was not sufficient to sustain GFR, resulting in anuria. b A repeat renal MAG-3 scintigraphy performed 4 months after surgery demonstrated smooth staining of the transplanted right kidney at the right iliac fossa; additionally, MAG-3 washed out at 15 min after injection, indicating that renal perfusion and glomerular filtration had recovered. MAG-3, Mercaptoacetyltriglycine; GFR, Glomerular filtration rate
