Vascular causes of renal failure

  • Chapter
Renal Failure

Part of the book series: Developments in Nephrology ((DINE,volume 37))

Abstract

Vascular causes of renal failure are listed on Table 10.1 and break down into three categories: Vasomotor disturbances refer to changes in glomerular arteriolar tone that reduce glomerular capillary pressure and as a result decrease glomerular filtration. These are functional rather than structural disorders, since the fall in renal perfusion that usually occurs is not enough to cause ischemic injury to renal tissue. Small vessel involvement consists of the blockage of small arteries and arterioles by cholesterol crystals, thrombi or pathological processes in the vessel wall. Large vessel involvement comprises the occlusion of the renal arteries and their main branches by a variety of conditions. Main renal artery lesions are included here although they do not involve intrinsic renal structures.
