  • Title: Tc-99m glucoheptonate scintigraphy in a case of renal vein thrombosis.
    Author: Sfakianakis GN, Zilleruelo G, Thompson T, Al-Sheikh W, Strauss J.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1985 Feb; 10(2):75-9. PubMed ID: 3987153.
    Abstract:
    Tc-99m glucoheptonate flow and static studies with computer-assisted analysis provided specific diagnostic information in unilateral renal vein thrombosis complicating a case of nephrotic syndrome. Decreased flow with congestion, a large kidney with parenchymal thickening, pelvocalyceal thinning, good function, and no obstruction in the proper clinical settings indicated the diagnosis of a chronic form of renal vein thrombosis with compensating collateralization. The differential diagnosis is discussed.
