Abstract:
Results are submitted of studying the function of the kidneys in 34 patients with Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease and syndrome, who were evaluated by dynamic renoscintigraphy besides routine clinical procedures. Dynamic renoscintigraphy was found to be an important diagnostic acid enabling one to disclose function disorders of the kidneys in the preclinical stage under normal routine investigations. In this setting, there have been revealed disturbances both in secretory-filtrational and excretory and aggregate functions of the kidneys practically in all the patients irrespective of the type of hypercorticoidism. Surgical treatment of hypercorticoidism does not lead to normalization of the function of the kidneys. And what is more, function disorders of the kidney on the side of the surgical intervention appear to be even more serious.

Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...
