Current Opinion in Urology, 1999
Approximately 5% of all hypertensive patients have renovascular hypertension, although its true incidence is unknown. The pathophysiology of renovascular hypertension has been linked to other intrarenal systems, the lipoxygenase pathway, and renin angiotensin.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1984
Renovascular hypertension, the most common form of secondary hypertension, continues to present a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas. This article briefly reviews the pathogenesis, etiology, natural history, and classification of the forms of renovascular disease and discusses available techniques for its diagnosis and treatment in adults.

Nonatherosclerotic Renovascular Hypertension
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2023Renovascular hypertension (RVH) is a secondary form of high blood pressure resulting from impaired blood flow to the kidneys with subsequent activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Often, this occurs due to abnormally small, narrowed, or blocked blood vessels supplying one or both kidneys (ie: renal artery occlusive disease) and is ...

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2001
This article discusses the pathophysiologic features, diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with renovascular hypertension. Timely diagnosis is important as the disease can carry a more serious prognosis than essential hypertension and is less amenable to drug treatment. Renovascular hypertension also carries a greater risk of progression to

Management of Renovascular Hypertension
Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2016Renal artery stenosis is a potentially reversible cause of hypertension, and transcatheter techniques are essential to its treatment. Angioplasty remains a first-line treatment for stenosis secondary to fibromuscular dysplasia. Renal artery stenting is commonly used in atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis, although recent trials have cast doubts upon ...

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 ...
