Abstract
The scintigraphic findings in a rare case of bilateral renal malakopla kia are presented. Markedly increased Ga-67 activity was present in bo th kidneys in sites corresponding to focal cortical defects on Tc-99m gluceptate (glucoheptonate) imaging. Interestingly, there was no abnor mal renal activity with In-111 leukocyte scanning.
