[Secondary hypertension of equivocal diagnosis].
Secondary hypertension (20%) is the result of specific causes and is susceptible of cure. It is uncommon, however, that in the same patient several pathological conditions which a priori could individually cause increased pressure values should coexist. A presentation if made of a patient with arterial hypertension, the study of which demonstrated the existence of homolateral adrenal tumour (corticoadenoma), renal tumour (angiomyolipoma), as well as proximal stenosis and small distal aneurism of the renal artery upper branch. An explanation is given here of the diagnostic evolution showing the images obtained, including a debate of the methodology followed and treatment performed.
