Abstract
Pullback pressures form the left renal vein to the inferior vena cava were done on 50 normal patients. A gradient more than 1 mm Hg was found in only 1 patient. The significance of these results as they related to the etiology of varicocele formation and essential hematuria is discussed.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
