Renovascular hypertension. A review.
Recognition of renal artery occlusion as a cause for hypertension is resulting in a systematic search for the patient with a potentially curable vascular lesion. Radioisotope renography, differential renal function studies and renal arteriography serve as screening studies to aid in the diagnostic evaluation. Vascular reconstructive operation was employed in 13 patients.
