Impaired Renal Arterial Blood Flow Velocity in Nephroptosis

Abstract

The diagnosis nephroptosis, as well as surgical treatment of the condition, has been profoundly questioned in recent decades. Here, we report on a case of nephropexy in a young woman with nephroptosis with complete resolution of symptoms and with correction of preoperatively abnormal 99mTc-DMSA scan and renal arterial Doppler examination.
