MITRAL STENOSIS COMPLICATED BY RENAL ARTERY EMBOLISM
Six patients with mitral stenosis complicated by renal artery embolism studied prospectively are presented. In five patients there was unilateral and in one patient bilateral renal artery involvement. The diagnosis was confirmed by intravenous pyelography, retrograde pyelography, renal angiography, renal scan or a combination of these. All had atrial fibrillation, proteinuria and elevated ...
متن کاملRegional secondary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in a transplanted kidney – resolution with treatment of a segmental renal artery stenosis
BACKGROUND Conditions associated with high intraglomerular filtration pressure can cause secondary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Unilateral renal artery stenosis (RAS) or its occlusion results in FSGS-like changes and the nephrotic syndrome in the contralateral kidney due to hyperfiltration. However, it has been rarely reported that stenosis of a renal arterial branch can result in...
متن کاملAcute renal failure in the transplanted kidney.
Acute renal failure (ARF) in the transplanted kidney represents a high-stakes area of nephrology and of transplantation practice. A correct diagnosis can lead to rapid return of renal function; an incorrect diagnosis can lead to loss of the graft and severe sequelae for the patient. The diagnostic possibilities are many (Fig. 10-1) and treatments quite different, although the clinical presentat...
متن کاملDoppler ultrasonography for the detection of renal artery stenosis in transplanted kidneys.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the importance of Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosing renal artery stenosis in transplanted kidneys using angiography as the accepted gold standard. Fourteen kidney graft recipients with clinical severe hypertension, impaired renal function, or both had their renal artery blood flow studied by Doppler ultrasonography before angiography. Seven patien...
متن کاملFunction of the contralateral kidney in renal hypertension due to renal artery stenosis.
T IE RO(LE of the kidney iii the control of blood pressure is a complex one. Thus it is now elear fromi the experiments of Wilson and Byrom' that partial constriction of one renal artery in the rat will lead to sustained hypertension and the development of histologic ehanges in the opposite kidney that appear to be identical with changes seen in malignant hypertension in n .ai These important o...
