Comparison of aortography, renal vein renin sampling, radionuclide scans, ultrasound and the IVU in the investigation of childhood renovascular hypertension.
The results of the investigations of all patients who underwent renal arteriography for hypertension due to renovascular disease over a three and a quarter year period prior to January 1st 1981 are reviewed and discussed. The experience gained has helped demonstrate the usefulness of DMSA scans, segmental renal vein renin estimations, and AP and oblique selective renal arteriograms with macroradiography.
