Abstract

Renal autotransplantation was performed in 16 patients with severe renovascular hypertension. The hypertension was cured in 13 patients, 2 patients were improved and one patient had no benefit. The postoperative function and morphology of the transplanted kidneys remained unchanged. In our view, renal autotransplantation is a valuable method in the surgical treatment of renovascular hypertension.
