Popis: This report reviews the results of nephrectomy in twelve cases of unilateral pyelonephritis and three cases of unilateral hydronephrosis with hypertension. Those patients showing the best response usually have a prominent element of ischemia superimposed on the pyelonephritis. Half of the cases reported herein have been either “cured” of their hypertension or markedly improved by nephrectomy.
