Diagnosis and surgical treatment of page kidney: Selected aspects
Abstract:
The Page kidney is a well-recognized cause of correctable hypertension. The case described herein illustrates certain select diagnostic features including the method of radiographic visualization of the capsule and subcapsular fluid-which appears to be related to both the volume of contrast material injected and the proper timing sequence of the radiographic examination. The chosen therapeutic approach was aimed at curing the hypertension while preserving maximal renal function. Aspiration therapy was used as an initial conservative procedure. Removal of the entire pseudocapsule followed in preference to nephrectomy.
