Scintigrams in prone and standing positions were done in 11 hypertensive women. All had nephroptosis with ventral rotation. On the basis of the renograms, seven patients were identified as suffering from orthostatic hypertension. Nephropexy resulted in normalization of blood pressure in six of the seven patients and normalization of the renograms of all seven. We believe that sequence scintigrams in prone and standing positions offer a simple method of identifying patients with orthostatic hypertension.
