title: [Renal angiography with the use of vasoactive drugs and its value in the diagnosis of vasorenal hypertension].
abstract: The results of 76 selective renal angiographies in 33 patients with the use of adrenalin and acetylcholine are presented (17 cases of renovascular hypertension, 7-chronic pyelonephritis, 5-essential hypertension, 2-nephroptosis, 1-kidney tumor). The pecularities of the method essential for the success of the examination and prevention of complications are described. The importance of pharmacoangiography with adrenalin for the determination of the length of renal vessels lesion in cases of fibrous dysplasia was demonstrated, as well as that of the acetylcholine test for examining the state of the vascular bed of the contralateral kidney, the same procedures being applied in cases of chronic pyelonephritis. Typical pharmacoangiographic symptoms of different forms of nephrogenic hypertension are described.
