ESTUDIO ESTRUCTURAL Y MORFOMÉTRICO DEL RIÑÓN CONTRALATERAL EN CASO DE NEFRECTOMÍA, HIDRONEFROSIS UNILATERAL Y NEFRECTOMÍA POSTHIDRONEFROSIS
Abstract
It is studied the modifications occurred in the contralateral kidney on three different cases: unilateral nephrectomy, unilateral hydronephrosis and unilateral hydrophenosis followed by nephrectomy. Structural and morphometrical studies have been carried out on the glomeruli of three different groups of twenty Wistar rats each. The result suggest the existence in the contralateral kidney of a compensating hypertrophy in the case of unilateral nephrectomy. Similar results can be observed in the other two cases, although there are evidence of irreversible structural changes in the glomeruli of animals with unilateral hydronephrosis. However the process tends to remit partially if a nephrectomy of the hydronephrotic kidney is carried outDownloads
