Evaluation of neonatal hydronephrosis with diuretic renography
The common use of maternal ultrasonography has increased the apparent incidence of neonatal hydronephrosis. Many of these cases are found to have partial obstruction at the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ). These patients are safely managed in our institution with careful observation and only occasionally require surgical intervention. The authors present two contrastin...
متن کامل99mTc-DTPA Diuretic Renography with 3 hours late output fraction in the evaluation of hydronephrosis in children.
OBJECTIVE Dynamic renal scintigraphy complemented by late gravity assisted postvoid images to 60 minutes is a frequently used diagnostic test in the evaluation of hydrone¬phrosis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness in acquiring images at 180 minutes to calculate the late output fraction (LOF) of 99mTc-DTPA in the diagnosis of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). ...
متن کاملCan renal doppler sonography replace diuretic radionuclide renography in infants with hydronephrosis?
Reliable differentiation between obstructive and non-obstructive hydronephrosis is decisive for the further therapeutic management in infants. The results of renal Doppler sonography were compared with diuretic radionuclide renography and with the follow-up results in 33 patients (range: 21 to 98 days). In Doppler sonography, a resistive index (RI) of > 0.9 was considered to be abnormal in the ...
متن کاملDiuretic effect on the measurement of differential renal function using 99mTc-DMSA in patients with hydronephrosis [Persian]
Introduction: It has been suggested that calculation of differential renal function (DRF) using 99mTc-DMSA may lead to overestimation of the function of an obstructed kidney. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of diuretic administration on the determination of DRF using 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy in patients with dilated pelvis. Methods: Thirty three patients, aged from 2 month...
متن کاملAssessment of individual renal function in children using 99mTc-DTPA.
Differential renal function assessment using 99mTc-DTPA was carried out in 12 children aged between 3 weeks and 11 years who had undergone surgical procedures which allowed separate access to the urine output from each kidney. The results correlated well with those obtained by measuring individual kidney creatinine clearances. The best result was obtained using the technique of deconvolution an...
