conclusions precise evaluation of patients with one renal abnormality could lead to detection of other associated anomalies. application of minimally invasive procedures such as ureteroscopic incision is highly recommended in ureterocele treatment. case presentation a middle-aged male was known to have horseshoe kidney, bilateral ureteroceles and a stone, 1 cm in diameter, in his right ureter. ...

Oral administration of clonidine lowered the high blood pressure in two-kidney, one-clip hypertensive rats in chronic stage (three to four months), but not in one-kidney, one-clip hypertensive rats. This reduction of blood pressure was well correlated with decrease in plasma renin concentration, but not with decrease in urinary noradrenaline excretion. These results suggest that the reduction o...

The reduction in blood pressure to normotensive levels within 3 hours of unclipping the one-kidney, one clip Goldblatt hypertensive rat has been attributed to the release of potent blood pressure-lowering lipids, one of which is thought to be identical to platelet activating factor. The specific platelet activating factor receptor antagonist WEB 2086 was infused intravenously into hypertensive ...

One-kidney Goldblatt hypertensive rabbits (New Zealand White) were studied after durations of renal artery clipping that varied from 6 to 17 days. Measurements included arterial pressure (ABP), iliac venous pressure (IVP), left atrial pressure (LAP), cardiac output (CO) (by thermodilution), blood volume (BV), cardiopulmonary volume (CPV), and hindleg thermodilution volume (HLV). These were dete...
