[Renal artery stenosis in pediatric age. Clinical and instrumental observations of two patients].
Two male patients, four and six years old, affected with monolateral renal artery stenosis are reported. One of them presented recurrent facial nerve palsy, while the other was affected by renal calculosis. The diagnostic suspicion was confirmed by arteriography. They were submitted respectively to aortorenal bypass and nephrectomy, with blood pressure normalization.
