| 영문 | renal hypertension | 한글 | 콩팥성고혈압 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥실질의 병변으로 인해 야기된 고혈압. 콩팥의 대표적 기능은 노폐물 및 수분의 배설이다. 그런데 이러한 콩팥기능에 이상이 생겼을 경우 체내에 과잉수분의 축적이 발생하게 된다. 이와같은 과잉수분의 축적은 혈관내 정수압을 상승시켜 고혈압을 유발하게 된다. 치료는 원인 콩팥병의 교정이며 이유를 모르는 원발고혈압과 달리 콩팥성고혈압의 경우에는 원인 콩팥병이 교정되면 고혈압도 사라지게 된다. |

| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| 영문 | renal transplantation | 한글 | 콩팥이식 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥병을 가지고 있으나 치료가 불가능한 만성콩팥기능상실 등의 질병을 가진 환자의 신장을 떼어내고 환자와 항원성이 유사한 사람의 콩팥을 이식해주는 것. 이 때 서로간의 항원성의 유사점이 많아야 거부반응이 일어나지 않는다. 그리고 일단 콩팥이식을 받은 사람은 오랜기간 동안 면역억제제를 투여하여 거부반응을 줄여야 한다. 대개 이식된 콩팥은 엉덩뼈오목에 위치하게 된다. |

| renal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the abdominal aorta which supplies the kidneys, adrenal glands and ureters. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| renal artery obstruction | Narrowing or occlusion of the renal arteries. It is due usually to atherosclerosis, fibromuscular dysplasia, thrombosis, embolism, or external pressure. It may result in renovascular hypertension. (12 Dec 1998) |
| renal artery stenosis | <cardiology, nephrology> A narrowing of the renal artery or one of its main branches accounts for 2 to 5% of cases of hypertension. (27 Sep 1997) |
| renal ballottement | A manoeuvre in which the kidney is moved by pressure from behind, allowing it to be felt between the hands and its size, shape, and mobility determined. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal blood flow, effective | The amount of blood flowing to the parts of the kidney that are involved with the production of constituents of urine. It is that portion of the total renal blood flow that perfuses functional renal tissue (e.g., the glomeruli). It should be differentiated from renal plasma flow, effective which is based on the amount of plasma rather than on total renal blood. (12 Dec 1998) |
| renal branch of lesser splanchnic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of lesser splanchnic nerve to the aorticorenal plexus/ganglion. Synonym: ramus renalis nervi splanchnici minoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal branch of vagus nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branches of vagus nerve to kidney via the coeliac plexus. Synonym: rami renales nervi vagi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal calcification | <radiology> Nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, medullary (more common), cortical, neoplastic or inflammatory mass, renal cell carcinoma, XGP, tuberculosis (12 Dec 1998) |
| renal calculi | <radiology> Common: calcium phosphate (8%), calcium oxalate (most common: 73%, most opaque), magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite), uncommon: diammonium calcium phosphate, magnesium phosphate, rare: cystine (faintly opaque; 1%), urate (lucent; 7%), xanthine see: matrix calculi (12 Dec 1998) |
| renal calculus | A calculus occurring within the kidney collecting system. Synonym: nephrolith. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal cancer | <radiology> About 8300 adults die each year from kidney cancer. An estimated 18100 new cases are diagnosed each year, comprising 2% of all cancers. The average age at diagnosis is 55-60 years., adenocarcinoma (hypernephroma), 80% of renal carcinoma, 66% male, associated with smoking, transitional cell or squamous carcinoma, 15% of renal carcinoma, 50% male, associated with calculous disease Excretory urography may reveal the primary lesion, the degree of local extension and evidence of compression or deviation of the ureter.
