Hypertension and the Kidney COMPARISON OF DUPLEX ULTRASOUND WITH ARTERIOGRAPHY
Hypokalemia FIGURE 3-16 Comparison of duplex ultrasound with arteriography. A total of 102 consecutive patients with both duplex ultrasound scanning of the renal arteries and renal arteriography were prospectively studied. All patients in this study had difficult-to-control hypertension, unexplained azotemia, or associated peripheral vascular disease, giving them a high pretest likelihood of re...
متن کاملIntermittent claudication and severe renal artery stenosis are independently associated in hypertensive patients referred for renal arteriography
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the presence of clinical symptoms of peripheral artery disease and severe renal artery stenosis in patients referred for renal angiography. METHOD: We included 82 patients with clinical suspicion of renovascular hypertension and performed an imaging investigation (renal Doppler ultrasound and/or renal scintigraphy) f...
متن کاملRole of duplex scanning for the detection of atherosclerotic renal artery disease.
To assess the accuracy of renal artery duplex scanning for the purpose of diagnosing atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis, we compared the findings of renal arteriograms to the results of duplex scanning in 41 patients. Using an increase of renal artery peak systolic flow velocity of greater than 180 cm/sec, duplex scanning was able to discriminate normal from diseased renal arteries with a se...
متن کاملThe place of renal scintigraphy in the diagnosis of renal artery stenosis. Fifteen years of clinical experience.
BACKGROUND Renal scintigraphy with radiolabeled pentetic acid (diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid [DTPA]) or, more recently, mertiatide (mercaptoacetyltriglycine [MAG3]), with or without captopril challenge, is widely recommended as a diagnostic test for renal artery stenosis. OBJECTIVES To address (1) whether the diagnostic accuracy has been improved by the use of captopril and the introduc...
متن کاملAbdominal bruit after renal transplantation.
Forty-seven recipients of renal allografts have been studied at varying intervals of up to five years after transplantation. Renal artery bruit occurred in eight of 16 patients observed over the first two post-transplant months and disappeared spontaneously in four of these. The disappearance of the bruit was associated with poor renal function. Renal bruits were audible in 10 patients examined...
