“…Anuria can also appear after unilateral total occlusion with an acute tubular necrosis on the contralateral side (Lichtenheld et al, 1961). With an extensive bilateral infarction, there is a rapid irreversible oliguria-anuria resulting in death in uremia.…”

“…Most cases of renal cortical infarction in adults have been described in connection with pregnancy and delivery, acute infections, intoxications, trauma, pronounced dehydration, or purpura (Duff & More, 1941;Lichtenheld, Franklin & Serenati, 1961). In children, cortical infarction has almost invariably occurred after an acute infection such as otitis or rhino-pharyngitis (Akerren, 1947;Campbell & Henderson, 1949) or gastro-enteritis (Zuelzer, Kurnetz & Charles, 1951;Eskeland & Skogrand, 1959).…”

A patient with a suspected segmental aseptic renal infarction is described. Initially, the clinical picture was characterized by pain and macroscopic haematuria. An acute intravenous pyelography showed a normal roentgen anatomy. At a second intravenous pyelography one week later, an incomplete filling of the two cranial calyces was found. A subsequent renal angiography showed an avascular area within the corresponding parenchyma. The distinct demarcation of the avascular zone caused us to suspect that the disease might be ischemic. A second and a third renal angiography 6 weeks and 4 months later, respectively, both showed complete restoration with a normal vascular pattern. The necessity of performing an acute renal angiography in every case of a suspected renal infarction is stressed. The possibility of preventing hypertension by kidney resection in patients with incomplete restoration of the renal parenchyma is evaluated.
