  • Title: Renal displacement visualized on myocardial scintigram: case report.
    Author: Gray WR, Oakes PL, Lewis SE, Bonte FJ, Willerson JT, Parkey RW.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1977 Apr; 18(4):350-2. PubMed ID: 191580.
    Abstract:
    Myocardial scinitgrams, using 99mTc-stannous pyrophosphate, showed an acute posterior infarction and an abnormally placed left kidney in a 24-year-old hypertensive man; Further study revealed that the kidney was displaced by a mass later proven to be a pheochromocytoma. The latter was the cause of his hypertension and probably instigated the acute myocardial infarction.
