[Hypertension due to limited coarctation of the right renal artery occurring 2 years after left nephrectomy for a "small kidney". 5 year cure obtained by enlargement angioplasty (author's transl)].
The case of a young boy developing hypertension 3 years after removal of a small kidney due to pyelonephritis and vesico-ureteral reflux. Discovery in the artery of the remaining kidney of a limited coarctation without any of the lesions usually responsible for hypertension. Cured by enlargement angioplasty with a 5 year follow-up. This case is interpreted as an example (to our knowledge the only case in the literature) of hypertension, the mechanism of which is that revealed by Schlegel's experiments.
