[Evaluation of the condition of an allotransplanted kidney during the treatment with Sandimmune].

Instrumental-functional examinations (echography, rheography, electrothermometry) were performed in 22 patients with the allotransplanted kidney treated by Sandimmune and in 20 patients treated by standard immunodepression (Azathioprine and corticosteroids). An analysis of the examinations performed has shown reliable differences between the complications which involved the transplant size, cortical layer, skin-temperature gradient, the degree of the venous wave.
