Compensatory changes in the kidney after unilateral nephrectomy

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

Compensatory changes in the intact kidney following unilateral nephrectomy in dogs were studied. Diuresis, filtration, and water reabsorption were determined. The absolute values of diuresis, filtration, and water reabsorption were increased in the majority of animals after 2–3 months from the time of the operation.

In the author's opinion, the compensatory changes in the intact kidney is due to alterations in neuro-humoral regulation.
