title: [Evaluation of surgical renal revascularization in renovascular arterial hypertension. Measurement by 99m Tc DTPA scintigraphy].
abstract: The effects of surgical renal revascularization on both hypertension and kidney function was assessed in 16 patients with renovascular hypertension (14 unilateral). We have taken a special interest to the split renal function studied with DTPA renogram. The function of the operated kidney was improved in 9 patients and not improved (worsened or unchanged) in 7. Hypertension was cured in 25% and improved in 56% of the patients, without correlation with split renal function outcome.
