[Renovascular hypertension: symptoms and signs. Clinical study on 20 patients].
OBJECTIVE
symptoms in renovascular hypertension can be wrong interpreted, which leads to a late diagnostic, after discover the determination disease.


METHODS
the study on the renovascular hypertension was made on 20 patients, aged between 2 and 36 years old, diagnosed with reno-ureteral malformations, pyelonephritis, reno-ureteral reflux and renal trauma as a determination disease, leads to manifestation types that guide the diagnostic: neuro-psychiatric signs, weight loss, renal signs and digestive signs. Beginning from these signs the arterial hypertension was diagnosed and the investigations determined the causes.


RESULTS
Periodic postoperative evaluation at 3 months, during a period between 4 months and 7 years, individualised 4 evolutional clinical types: AHT with lumbar pain, AHT with no clinical signs, AHT with ophthalmologic signs and AHT with encephalitis like signs.


CONCLUSIONS
symptoms in renovascular hypertension don't have pathognomonic clues and the identified signs, one type or all together, enforce the evaluation or even the monitoring of the arterial tension at least 30 days. If the values exceed the normal, complex investigations will be made in order to determine the specific cause of the AHT.
