    Abstract:
    In 16 patients (7 males, 9 females), aged 47.2 +/- 15.9 years, blood serum concentrations of osteocalcin, beta-crosslaps, parathormone, calcium, phosphate, creatinine and urea were determined before renal transplantation and 3 and 6 months following the procedure. Three as well as six months following renal transplantation significant decrease in blood serum concentration of osteocalcin and beta-crosslaps are found. A significant positive correlation between osteocalcin and beta-crosslaps concentration was found in each investigated period. Six-months observation revealed only partial correction of bone metabolism following renal transplantation.
