Urine output from the transplanted kidneys were very well in both cases. BUN fall and the correction of acidosis were not observed in the first case. The renal function of the second case was extremely well for three weeks after the operation.Prolonged thoracic duct lymph drainage was applied for these two cases as one of immunosuppressive procedures.The problems about clinical, technical and immunosuppressive methods were reviewed and discussed.
