Abstract

Radionuclide renal scintigraphies were performed in a 24-year-old man with right renal artery branch stenosis. Captopril enhanced $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ renal scintigraphy revealed no abnormal finding in the right kidney. But, $^{99m}Tc-DMSA$ renal scintigraphy showed regional cortical photon deficient area corresponding to the area supplied by the stenotic branch artery. The defect size increased in captopril enhanced $^{99m}Tc-DMSA$ renal scintigrphy and nearly disappeared after successful transluminal renal angioplasty. This case suggests that the captopril enhanced $^{99m}Tc-DMSA$ renal scintigraphy may be a useful method in the evaluation of renovascular hypertension, especially due to branch renal srtery stenosis.
