In four children the role of captopril-radionuclide nephrography in the diagnosis of renovascular hypertension was studied. Captopril (0.5-1.0 mg/kg orally) did not affect Iodine-123 Hippuran nephrography in two children with mild renal artery stenosis, but induced an accumulation of the tracer within the kidneys in two children with hemodynamically significant renal artery stenosis. As in adults Iodine 123 Hippuran nephrography appears to be a useful tool to identify patients with significant renal artery stenosis.

D012078 Renal Artery Obstruction Narrowing or occlusion of the RENAL ARTERY or arteries. It is due usually to ATHEROSCLEROSIS; FIBROMUSCULAR DYSPLASIA; THROMBOSIS; EMBOLISM, or external pressure.

D002216 Captopril A potent and specific inhibitor of PEPTIDYL-DIPEPTIDASE A. It blocks the conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, a vasoconstrictor and important regulator of arterial blood pressure. Captopril acts to suppress the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM and inhibits pressure responses to exogenous angiotensin.
