Page kidney as a complication of percutaneous antegrade endopyelotomy.
A kidney with a compressive process that results in hyperreninemic hypertension is often referred to as a "Page" kidney. We present a case of "Page" kidney that resulted as a complication of percutaneous antegrade endopyelotomy. The patient had a typical presentation and classic radiologic signs of such a process. Surgical management consisted of nephrectomy, with resultant resolution of signs and symptoms.
