Abstract
Three patients with different stages of renal scleroderma are presented, and the angiographic diagnosis of this disease is dicussed. No one pattern is specific, but the combination of findings is considered diagnostic of this disease. Pharmacoangiography is proposed for differential of renal scleroderma, and selective renal artery infusion of vasodilators is suggested as a potential means of therapy.
