Renin-dependent renal parenchymatous hypertension detected by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor renography.
Hypertension secondary to an activated renin-angiotensin system without renal artery stenosis can be detected by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor renography. Two cases of renin-mediated hypertension without major or branch vessel stenosis supplying the kidney with parenchymatous disease were discovered by ACE inhibitor renography.
