Evaluation of renovascular hypertension
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993Many tests are available for the evaluation of renovascular hypertension; each of these has its own advantages and disadvantages as a screening test. The nonimaging tests include measurement of peripheral plasma renin activity, the captopril test, and renal vein renin sampling, all of which have inherent limitations.

The Pathophysiology of Renovascular Hypertension
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1975Renovascular hypertension, comprising a small percentage of the total hypertensive population, stands out as remarkably important, being the most common cause of surgically correctable hypertension. Its precise diagnosis can be accomplished by judicious application of recently available sophisticated laboratory methods and correct prediction of ...

Renovascular Hypertension in Children
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1993Renal arteriography remains the only study to identify and define correctly both location and extent of renal artery stenosis. Because other studies do not adequately identify all children who have renal artery disease, it is reasonable to perform renal arteriography in those children with severe hypertension who do not have another readily ...

A 55-year-old male is referred for investigation of lower limb claudication pains. His past medical history includes long standing hypertension and a previous myocardial infarction 3 years previously with subsequent coronary angioplasty and stenting. He is a life long smoker, but rarely takes any alcohol.

Screening for Renovascular Hypertension
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1991The most common curable cause of high blood pressure is renovascular hypertension. Although hypertension is common in the United States, only a minority, approximately 1%, of patients have a renovascular cause. Using clinical criteria, a subgroup of these patients can be selected in which the prevalence of renovascular hypertension will be ...

Pediatric renovascular hypertension
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1996Renovascular disease is a frequent cause of severe hypertension in children and may result in significant morbidity or mortality. Most children presenting with renovascular hypertension have few if any symptoms, but devastating neurologic injury and congestive heart failure are still too often observed.

The Spectrum of Renovascular Hypertension
Cardiology, 2008This review briefly summarizes pathological findings that may cause renovascular hypertension. Though atherosclerosis is the most common cause of renovascular hypertension, one third of all renovascular disorders has to be contributed to one of the arterial dysplasias.

Renovascular Hypertension in Children
Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 2001To study the etiology, clinical spectrum. image findings, management and outcome of children with renovascular hypertension (RVH).Twenty children (aged 5 days to 15 years) were studied and treated for RVH during 1977-1998. In 14 cases hypertension was found during a routine examination.

An Update on Renovascular Hypertension
Current Cardiology Reports, 2005Renovascular hypertension (RVH) represents a secondary and potentially remediable form of hypertension. Elevated blood pressure is only one of a broad array of pathophysiologic consequences that are associated with decreased renal perfusion. Our ability to accurately and noninvasively detect stenotic lesions within the renal artery is growing. However,
