[Results of radionuclide study of the single kidney remaining after nephrectomy in nephrolithiasis]
Abstract:
Computerized dynamic gamma scintigraphy with indirect radionuclide angiography was carried out in 29 patients with a single kidney. It was found that patients with a single kidney show already at the stage of "intact" organ persistent disorders of intrarenal hemodynamic processes as well as chronic urostasis. This variant of radionuclide examination may be used in the prophylactic management of this category of patients.
