Kidney computed tomography perfusion in patients with ureteral obstruction.
Introduction: Kidney perfusion on CT is an encouraging surrogate for renal scintigraphy in assessing renal function. However, data on dynamic volumetric CT in patients with kidney obstruction is lacking. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of CT-based renal perfusion using a dynamic volume to assess renal hemodynamics at different degrees and durations of obstruction.
Materials and methods: We included patients with unilateral kidney obstruction in our single-center, prospective study. The patients were divided into three groups. Patients without dilatation of the pelvicalyceal system (PCS) and normal parenchyma thickness were included into Group 1; patients with PCS dilatation and parenchyma thickness 1.8-2.4 cm-into Group 2; and patients with ureteropyelocalicoectasia and parenchyma thickness less than 1.8 cm-into Group 3.
Results: Total of 56 patients were enrolled. In Group 1 mean values of cortical and medullar arterial blood flow, blood volume, and extraction fraction were within the normal range. Changes in contralateral kidney were not determined. Patients from Group 2 showed significant differences in blood flow parameters in the cortical and medulla of the obstructed kidney. No changes in perfusion values in the contralateral kidney was observed. In patients from Group 3 there was a marked decrease in perfusion on the side of obstruction compared to Group 2, indicating that the degree of expansion of the PCS directly correlates with the change in blood flow. However, in the contralateral kidney, these indicators exceeded the normal values of perfusion.
Conclusion: CT perfusion allows to objectively assess changes in blood flow in the setting of renal obstruction. The degree of obstruction directly affects the measured rate of blood flow.
