1. The technique of combined intravenous renal arteriography and pyelography is described and results in 848 hypertensive patients are reported. 2. The procedure was tolerated better than Seldinger arteriography and the diagnostic accuracy for renal artery stenosis was 95%. 3. The prevalence of renovascular disease was 7%. 4. Cost-effectiveness calculations favour combined intravenous arteriography and pyelography rather than the usual approach based on assessment of the indications for Seldinger arteriography from clinical and urographic signs.

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. The reduced renal perfusion can lead to renovascular hypertension (HYPERTENSION, RENOVASCULAR).

D003362 Cost-Benefit Analysis A method of comparing the cost of a program with its expected benefits in dollars (or other currency). The benefit-to-cost ratio is a measure of total return expected per unit of money spent. This analysis generally excludes consideration of factors that are not measured ultimately in economic terms. In contrast a cost effectiveness in general compares cost with qualitative outcomes.
