Radioisotopic assessment of renal function in early puerperium in women with severe late gestosis of pregnancy

It is known that late gestosis of pregnant women does not go away, but leaves more or less pronounced changes, particularly in the kidneys. In previous studies we showed that in almost half of women who had severe late gestosis of pregnancy, renal function remains impaired one year after delivery. These abnormalities were detected by radioisotope renography; other diagnostic methods (biochemical, clinical) failed to detect changes in renal function. Unfortunately, radioisotope studies were not performed in early puerperium, so it was not possible to perform dynamic monitoring of the state of renal function immediately after delivery. At the present stage, pregnant women with severe late gestosis are discharged after intensive therapy of gestosis in the postpartum period.
