title: Bilateral renal artery stenosis: presenting as a case of scleroderma renal crisis.

Renal insufficiency aggravated by the use of angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibition prompted renal angiography. The latter demonstrated bilateral renal artery stenosis, an uncommon coexistence of two infrequent disorders.
