Interventional Treatment of Idiopathic Renal Hematuria

A Comprehensive Study of Renal Angiography in Dogs with Chronic Kidney Disease

“…Among the various renal Angio catheters available, this entire study was performed using the Cobra 2 catheter (Cook Company) stood out as an ideal and preferred choice for renal and cardiac angiograms. [12,19,24] Findings The right renal artery typically originates near the second lumbar vertebra, while the left renal artery arises between the second and third lumbar intervertebral spaces. It is important to note that the exact origins of these arteries can vary among different breeds and sizes of animals were concurred with finding of Kinacid [16] Angiogram findings of case I revealed a slower filling with reduced number of interlobular arteries, it was similar to renal hypoplasia which may be a glomerular nephritis, correlated with Mena [26]findings who observed renal changes in human medicine.…”

“…Renal angiogram is often used to confirm the diagnosis of RAS and to assess the severity of the stenosis. Treatment options may include angioplasty with or without stent placement ( [18] In few cases of unexplained haematuria, a renal angiogram can be helpful in identifying vascular abnormalities or sources of bleeding within the kidneys [19][20][21]. Thus the renal angiogram has many benefits in the diagnosis of renal diseases.…”

Idiopathic renal haematuria in an Egyptian Arabian stallion

“…In dogs, idiopathic renal haematuria typically occurs in otherwise healthy large‐breed individuals that are <2 years old, and there is no sex predilection (Berent ). Treatment options have included endoscopically guided sclerotherapy with povidone iodine and/or silver nitrate, partial occlusion of the renal artery and nephrectomy (Holt et al .…”

“…However, affected horses treated with unilateral nephrectomy frequently develop haemorrhage in the contralateral kidney (Schott 2010). In dogs, idiopathic renal haematuria typically occurs in otherwise healthy large-breed individuals that are <2 years old, and there is no sex predilection (Berent 2015). Treatment options have included endoscopically guided sclerotherapy with povidone iodine and/or silver nitrate, partial occlusion of the renal artery and nephrectomy (Holt et al 1987;Mishina et al 1997;Berent et al 2013;Adelman et al 2017).…”
