Reconsideration of split kidney function tests in hypertension: a new technique.

The role of the split kidney function tests in the diagnosis of renal hypertension is reviewed, and a new technique is described which is designed to diminish the number of false negative results sometimes encountered in unilateral pyelonephritis and segmental renal arterial stenosis. Split kidney function tests still have an important role in diagnosis of renal hypertension, particularly when the results of other investigations are equivocal and when facilities for differential renal renin assay are not available.

[Kidney function test after partial nephrectomy (author's transl)].

A new method for testing the function of the kidney after partial nephrectomy is reported. By means of radioisotope renography, urography and radioisotope clearance ('single-shot' method) it is possible to prove the function of the single kidney. The clearance in regard to the size of the shadow of the kidney assessed by urography allows to estimate the specified kidney function. We used these methods in ten patients and we detected that the loss of function is more extensive than expected by the operative reduction of the kidney parenchyma only. The causes for this are discussed.
