Abstract
We observed complement activation during hemodialysis in cases with acute renal failure and discussed its role in disdialysis. Levels of anaphylatoxin except C5a were already elevated at the beginning of the procedure in most of cases. C3a were markedly increased in both atrial and venous side samples. Elevation of C5a were noted only in venous side. This result indicate that anaphylatoxin has a significant role in disdialysis.
