[Changes in perfusion and blood flow distribution following normo- and hypothermic ischemia of the kidneys].
Experimental examinations were performed in 22 dogs to find out the mechanism which leads to a permanent or a reversible damage of the renal parenchyma after normo- and hypothermic ischemia. For this reason the perfusion and the distribution were examined with 133Xe, the vascular changes by angiography, and the parenchymal function with 131I-Hippuran. After normothermic ischemia a short-term reactive hyperemia appeared, which however could not compensate the damage of the renal tubular cells and the resulting excretory insufficiency. After hypothermic ischemia the perfusion was reduced, probably as a consequence of a vasconstriction by cold, however, the function of the tubular cells remained intact, because of the protective mechanism of the hypothermia. The importance of these findings for the development of the so-called "shock-kidney" (acute tubular necrosis) and for the conservative renal surgery in hypothermia is discussed and the application of measures beneficial to perfusion, are suggested.
