Nephroptosis, associated with renal circulatory disorder, is one of the reasons for symptomatic arterial hypertension (AH). An obvious dependence of blood pressure (BP) level on the body position is a feature of this form of AH. However, this correlation is not always easy to reveal when performing a routine physical examination. The authors of the article adduce 2 clinical observations in which ambulatory BP monitoring became the key method that allowed assuming dynamic vasorenal AH.

The present article is devoted to the search for topographic and anatomical factors of abnormal renal mobility that affects renal hemodynamics and determines complicated course of nephroptosis. Comparative evaluation of hemodynamics in patients with chronic pyelonephritis and symptomatic hypertension in abnormal renal mobility depending on the distribution on the degree of rotation and skeletotopic omission of kidney was performed. According to the data of frequency analysis and correspondence analysis of Statistics 6.0 program, it was determined that kidney rotated in three dimensions, and mainly in II degree descent kidney in study group. It was found that consistent multiple view scanning of patients with abnormal renal mobility allows to accurately assess the violations of tissue blood flow, which determine severity of complications of the disease, and to choose an adequate conservative and surgical treatment in each case.

Aborted sudden cardiac death (SCD) has not been reported as initial manifestation of cardiac involvement in metabolic myopathy (MM). A 20-year-old female with a previous history of three syncopes, hyperhidrosis, and recurrent tick bites experienced aborted SCD. Her mother presented with MM, and a history of pituitary adenoma, nephroptosis, arterial hypertension, depression, migraine, goiter, pancreatitis, osteoporosis, hyperhidrosis, multiple muscle ruptures, and hyperlipidemia. After a few days of disorientation and amnesia, the young female recovered completely. Clinical neurological examination was noticeable for partial ophthalmoparesis and mild hyperprolactinemia. She received an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, which did not discharge so far. Recurrent syncopes and aborted SCD may be the initial manifestation of MM with multiple organ involvement. The family history is important in cases with aborted SCD to guide the diagnostic work-up. Phenotypic heterogeneity between the family members may be an indicator of MM.

Nephroptosis is a rare complication in renal transplantation, but one with significant associated risk. Due to non-specific clinical features, there may be a substantial delay in diagnosis and loss of the transplanted kidney due to renal pedicle thrombosis. We present a case of post-transplantation nephroptosis after simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplant, which resulted in accelerated hypertension and reversible acute kidney injury >1 year after transplantation. Prompt detection of this rare entity leading to expeditious surgical intervention is necessary to preserve viability of the renal allograft.
