[Diagnosis and surgical tactics in stable arterial hypertension complicating nephroptosis]. / K diagnostike i khirurgicheskoi taktike pri stabil'noi arterial'noi gipertenzii na fone nefroptoza.

An experience with the surgical treatment of 87 patients with different forms of stable arterial hypertension--vasorenal, nephrogenic, endocrinous-adrenal--has shown that every 5th patient has associated lesions. For the period from 1982 till 1983 the authors diagnosed hyperplasia of the adrenal in 5 of 22 patients having a stable arterial hypertension. When detecting pathological changes of adrenals in arterial hypertension against the background of nephroptosis it is expedient to perform an appropriate intervention on adrenals in addition to correction of the vasorenal component.
