| الوصف: | Background: Atherosclerotic renovascular disease has been increasingly recognised as a common cause of end-stage renal failure in elderly people. The optimum management of this condition is unclear. The aim of this study was the prospective evaluation of the long-term renal outcome in kidneys with atherosclerotic nephropathy. Methods: We have performed sequential individual GFR (glomerular filtration rate) measurements in 115 kidneys where it or its contralateral kidney had angiographically proven atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis over a mean period of 19.37 ± 15.1 months (range 2–66 months). The individual renal function was measured by a synchronous combination of 51chromium ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid GFR (51CrEDTA GFR) and technetium dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc DMSA) scintigraphy, the so-called single kidney (SK) GFR test. According to the angiography findings, individual kidneys were divided into four groups: normal, stenosis, occlusion and those treated with balloon angioplasty with or without stent employment. Results: We have calculated the annualised rate of SKGFR change in the four groups of kidney (2.89 ± 8.93 ml/min/year in the normal group, −0.19 ± 4.99 ml/min/year in the stenosis group, 0.66 ± 3.21 ml/min/year in the occlusion group and−1.81±14 ml/min/year in the group of kidneys undergoing percutaneous revascularisation) and no statistically significant difference was found (p> 0.05). For paired kidneys with at least one undergoing |
