[Diagnostic value of the Doppler ultrasound of kidney vessels in pregnancy complicated with preeclampsia].

Preeclampsia (PE) is a complication of the second half of the pregnancy whose clinical course is hypertension and proteinuria with or without edema. Its pathogenesis is characterized with generalized vasoconstriction and endothelial dysfunction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of the Doppler ultrasound examination of the renal interlobar vessels in pregnancy complicated with preeclampsia in the context of the theory of the increased vessel resistance in this pregnancy disorder.
