Abstract
The radiation nephritis is a long-term degenerative injury involving nephron and mesangium after radiation exposure. 51 year-old male patient who underwent gastric surgery due to adenocarcinoma 18 months ago and had postoperative chemo-radiotherapy using FUFA Mayo Clinic regimen after surgical resection of gastric cancer. After one year from end of the radiation therapy, bone scan showed markedly increased 99mTc-MDP uptake in the upper pole of the left kidney.
