Noninflammatory Vascular Disease of the Kidney

  • Chapter
Suki and Massry’s THERAPY OF RENAL DISEASES AND RELATED DISORDERS

  • 295 Accesses

Abstract

The kidneys are highly vascularized organs that normally receive 20%–25% of the cardiac output. The arterial network of the kidney is highly specialized and is adapted to the regulatory functions of this organ. It is not unusual, therefore, to encounter functional and structural changes in the kidneys in diseases of the vasculature of any etiology. The compromise in renal function that ensues adversely affects, in turn, the course of the primary vascular disease. Conversely, the successful therapy of either the underlying vascular disease or the consequent deterioration of renal function will favorably alter the course of the other. This chapter deals only with the noninflammatory vascular diseases that compromise renal blood flow and alter renal function. The specific entities to be covered are high blood pressure, malignant hypertension, renovascular hypertension, scleroderma, embolic diseases, and renal vein thrombosis.
