Modified renal autotransplantation in children with renovascular hypertension
Hypertension in children is often associated with impaired blood flow through the kidneys as a result of the strictures of main trunks of renal arteries. Kidney autotransplantation with kidney implantation into iliac vessels is well recognized treatment for hypertension and arterial nephropathy in children, especially in cases involving complex reconstruction of arteries, or the need of reimpla...

Case: Patient is an 18-year-old asymptomatic male with arterial hypertension due to bilateral renal artery stenosis. After the first autotransplantation, patient progression was adequate and was corroborated by kidney scintigram and Doppler ultrasound. The second autotransplantation had the same favorable results. Blood pressure was normal from June 2006 to September 2009 with no need for antih...
متن کاملSolitary functioning kidney in children--a follow-up study.
BACKGROUND/AIMS This study aims to assess the cumulative incidence of elevated albuminuria, hypertension and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to identify possible renal injury in children with SFK. METHODS Forty-two children with SFK (23 boys; 27 congenital) were included in a prospective follow-up study. Blood pressure, albuminuria and eGFR were assessed repeatedly and t...
متن کاملPediatric Hypertension Renovascular Hypertension in Children
The chief pathophysiologic mechanism underlying renovascular HT involves the activation of both limbs of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and depends on the presence or absence of a contralateral kidney. Unilateral renal ischemia initiates the hypersecretion of renin, which accelerates the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II and enhances adrenal release of aldosterone. The res...
