Cardiovascular effects of successful renal transplantation: a 1-year sequential study of left ventricular morphology and function, and 24-hour blood pressure profile1

Abstract

Correction of the uremic state by renal transplantation leads to complete resolution of systolic dysfunction, regression of LVH, and improvement of left ventricular dilatation. In fact the reduction of LVH was dependent on adequate renal function and on a decrease in the systolic pressure levels.
