The diagnosis of obstructive uropathy may be difficult in the occasional case in which there is little or no dilatation of the collecting system. A case is presented in which anuric renal failure resulted from encasement of the ureters by tumor. The excretory urogram revealed a delayed pyelogram and a dense nephrogram with minimal dilatation of the collecting systems. The combination of a dense nephrogram and delayed pyelogram should raise the possibility of obstruction, regardless of the appearance of the collecting systems.

The distribution of gold Au 198 after intraperitoneal administration in dogs and rats was determined by scans and tissue radioassays obtained 24 hours after injection. Relative activity and percent of injected radioisotope contained in different organs were calculated. The radioisotope was found to be heavily concentrated in mediastinal lymph nodes and liver, with liver uptake averaging 36.5% of the injected isotope 24 hours after injection. The use of therapeutic intracavitary radiocolloids should be reevaluated in light of possible excessive irradiation of the liver.
