Cortical and medullary lymphatics have been observed during micro-angiographic studies of canine renal allograft rejection and retrograde ureteral injection in normal pigs. Lymphatic filling results from microvascular damage in the canine model and forniceal rupture in the pig. Renal lymphatics function as an alternate route for drainage during altered physiological states.
