Transient massive proteinuria following cardiopulmonary bypass surgery was
observed. It was characterized and attributed to post-operative
gelofusine infusion. Gelofusine
was found to interfere with dye binding but not immunochemical assays of
proteinuria. Proteinuria following gelofusine infusion
may not reflect underlying glomerular pathology.
