A patient with scleroderma renal crisis is described. At presentation he had severe hypertension, deteriorating renal function, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, and elevated levels of renin, aldosterone and noradrenaline. Enalapril controlled blood pressure, stabilized renal function, lowered aldosterone and noradrenaline levels, and improved peripheral circulation. It appears that converting-enzyme inhibitors can favourably alter the outlook of this otherwise fatal disorder.
本文描述了一名患有硬皮病肾危象的患者。初诊时,他患有严重高血压、肾功能恶化、微血管病性溶血性贫血,肾素、醛固酮和去甲肾上腺素水平升高。依那普利控制了血压,稳定了肾功能,降低了醛固酮和去甲肾上腺素水平,并改善了外周循环。看来,转换酶抑制剂可以有利地改变这种原本致命疾病的预后。
