A 53-year-old male was found to have hypertension caused by the significant secretion of renin from an atrophic left kidney. He had undergone extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for left renal lithiasis 11 years previously. A renal dynamic study with 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) indicated that the rate of renal excretion and uptake was decreased in the left kidney and normal in the right kidney. Renal angiography demonstrated a normal right renal artery and a small but nonstenotic left renal artery. The ratio of PRA in the left renal vein to that in the right renal vein was 1.7. Blood pressure could be lowered to the range of 140-150/80-90mmHg with imidapril, an ACE inhibitor. ESWL may cause hypertension via the well-known Page kidney effect. In this case, the kidney, atrophic probably due to ESWL, released a significant amount of renin. (Hyperfens Res 2000; 23: 709-712)
