Forty-three spinal cord injured patients with endstage renal disease (ESRD) maintained on hemodialysis were studied. The most prevalent renal lesions consisted of chronic pyelonephritis and amyloidosis while the main renal functional features included nephrotic range proteinuria, high urine output and relatively low serum creatinine for the degree of renal insufficiency. Normocytic, normochromic anemia with low reticulocyte response, low serum iron and iron binding capacity and high transfusion requirement and serum ferritin were noted. Various cardiovascular, pulmonary and gastrointestinal abnormalities were found with considerable frequencies. The incidence of amyloidosis was much higher than that reported previously. This is thought to be due to continued progression of amyloidosis occasioned by longer survival in the present series.
