In the presence of a single functioning kidney, renal artery obstruction produces anuria, which can require hemodialysis. If the problem is diagnosed immediately and surgical intervention is not delayed, revascularization of the ischemic kidney is usually successful. Few authors, however, have reported the return of function to a small solitary kidney after occlusion lasting longer than 2 hours. We describe a case that involved thrombosis of the renal artery to an 8-cm solitary kidney; a successful endarterectomy was performed 29 hours after the onset of anuria. This case shows that the reversibility of renal ischemia is not necessarily determined by either the duration of occlusion or the size of the affected kidney.

Resection of the aortic arch with moderate hypothermia and temporary circulatory arrest.

PubMed (1982)

Alan M. Speir Douglas Grey Denton A. Cooley

Resection of the aortic arch with the use of moderate hypothermia and temporary circulatory arrest was performed in a 63-year-old woman. The simplified technique is described, along with a brief review of the literature. The patient recovered uneventfully. After this manuscript was prepared, two other patients underwent successful replacement of the aortic arch for aneurysm. These cases are also summarized briefly in an illustrated table.

Hematuria Caused by Infrahepatic Interruption of the Inferior Vena Cava

The Journal of Urology (1988)

Samuel F. Goldenberg Douglas Grey Jean-jacques De Shaderevian Allan E. Fisch

We report a case of infrahepatic absence of the inferior vena cava, which was believed to be the cause of painless gross hematuria. Diagnosis was based on the results of computerized tomography and venacavography. Hemodynamic studies showed normal pressure in the inferior vena cava, superior vena cava and portal vein.
