Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A 59-year-old woman visited our clinic with complaints of right back dull pain. Excretory urography showed bilateral renal ptosis (a 6 cm decrease in position of the right kidney and a 5 cm decrease of the left kidney). She was treated with 7.5 g/day of Hochu-ekki-to. After 6 months, her symptoms improved and after 8 months excretory urography showed a 3 cm decrease in the position of both kidneys. Hochu-ekki-to might be useful for the conservative therapy of renal ptosis. |
