Page kidney

E G Amparo, C J Fagan

    Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography
    |August 1, 1982

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Computed tomography (CT) accurately diagnosed Page kidney, a condition causing hypertension due to renal compression by a subcapsular hematoma. This imaging technique identified the hematoma, correlating it with hypertension after trauma.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Nephrology
    • Hypertension

    Background:

    • Page kidney is hypertension caused by renal compression from a subcapsular hematoma.
    • Previous imaging like excretory urograms and renal arteriograms yielded nonspecific findings.

    Observation:

    • A classic case of Page kidney was evaluated.
    • The patient presented with hypertension following remote trauma.

    Findings:

    • Computed tomography (CT) revealed a well-circumscribed, elliptically shaped, low-density subcapsular hematoma.
    • The hematoma was observed to compress the renal parenchyma.

    Implications:

    • CT imaging is crucial for diagnosing Page kidney when other methods are inconclusive.
    • This case highlights the utility of CT in identifying the cause of secondary hypertension post-trauma.
