Renal Function after Left Renal Vein Ligation

The effect of increased pressure in one kidney, produced by ligation of its vein, on contralateral renal function was investigated in eight anesthetized dogs. Kidney function was determined under the same experimental conditions in five dogs, but without renal vein ligation. For the latter group, renal function, on the average, remained reasonably stable. After left renal vein ligation, findings for the right kidney were as follows: a) decreased urine flow, amounting maximally to 9.5–41.4% of control flows; b) slight increase of questionable significance in creatinine clearance; c) inconstant changes in PAH clearance; d) increase in urine osmolality to hypertonic values; e) decrease in solute-free water clearance; f) slight rise of questionable significance in total solute clearance; and g) either no change or inconstant changes in excretion rates Na+ and K+. The data indicate that the oliguria resulted solely from increased renal tubular reabsorption of water, suggesting liberation of antidiuretic hormone as the possible mechanism. Direct nervous influences on tubular reabsorption of water cannot, however, be presently ruled out.

Tumour Thrombus

A sixty-years-old male with diagnosis of a left adrenal mass ( mm) with associated tumour thrombosis of the left renal vein with no clear signs of thrombosis of the inferior vena cava was admitted for elective surgery Finally an adrenalectomy and excision of tumour thrombus preserving the ipsilateral kidney was made. Despite of the complex vascular management, this kind of approaches allow to preserve normal renal function in patients with future nephrotoxic treatment like cisplatin.

Pelvic Congestion

AbstractThe authors present an uncommon cause of pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) secondary to anterior nutcracker syndrome, which was caused by aortomegaly. Positional flank and pelvic pain was the only presenting feature with no renal dysfunction. Early and significant decompression of left renal vein (LRV) via left ovarian vein resulted in preserved renal function with symptomatic pelvic varices. Endovascular management by left ovarian vein coiling and LRV stenting was done. They briefly review the etiopathology, imaging, treatment rationale, and management options for nutcracker and PCS.
