Abstract
In patients with clinically significant unilateral nephroptosis, verified by X-ray examination, urinary LDH values swinging from normal, while the patients were supine, to abnormally high values during daily activity (erect position) were observed. In mongrel dogs we then demonstrated that a unilateral reduction of the renal arterial flow of 10–40%, measured electromagnetically and confirmed by 133Xe, produced a pathological unilateral increase of urinary LDH as compared to the not manipulated control kidney. In contrast, a reduction of the venous backflow did not influence the enzyme excretion.
