Twenty‐seven children had received neonatal exchange transfusions (one to seven times) with ACD‐adenine red cell concentrate containing 7 mg adenine per 100 ml of blood. They were evaluated in a follow‐up study at about five years of age. The examination comprised a history and physical examination, routine blood and urine examination, urine culture, serum creatinine and pitressin test. In no case could any renal damage be demonstrated. No correlation was found between the number of transfusions with ACD‐adenine blood and the values of serum creatinine and pitressin test.
