[Juvenile renovascular hypertension of unusual origin].
The case history of a girl aged 10 years with renovascular hypertension is presented. The symptoms were atypical. The diagnosis was made on basis of positive captopril renography. Angiography showed delayed filling of the right main renal artery by a long collateral vessel. The right renal artery was found to be occluded proximally by intimal hyperplasia. Renal angioplasty was performed and resulted in normalized blood pressure and normalized right kidney function.
