title: Concomitant renal and iliac fibromuscular dysplasia.
abstract: Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) usually involves the renal arteries and is an important cause of secondary hypertension in younger women. We report an unusual case of FMD in a middle-aged woman, not only involving both the renal and iliac arteries but also presenting in a pattern more typical of atherosclerosis.
