  • Title: [digital angiography via intravenous route in the study of the transplanted kidney artery].
    Author: Tessier JP, Teyssou H, Marchal M, Verdier JP, Tison E, Meyblum J.
    Journal: J Radiol; 1986; 67(8-9):573-7. PubMed ID: 3540291.
    Abstract:
    Results of 351 intravenous digital subtraction angiographs (AN) of transplanted kidneys emphasized reliability of this examination for detection of renal artery stenosis. A prospective study of 219 patients (188 interpretable AN) showed significant stenosis of grafted artery in 22% of cases: 17% of the 126 patients with normal blood pressure and 34% of the 62 cases of hypertension. Digital subtraction allows, with a single injection, assessment of renal artery, nephrogram and excretory cavities, but it is not a substitute for conventional intravenous urography 1 to 2 months after grafting.
