title: Hypertension due to angiodysplasia.
abstract: Renovascular hypertension is non essential hypertension, wherein anatomically evident arterial occlusive disease and increased blood pressures are related as cause and effect. The hypertension is due to renal ischemia. Angiodysplasia is an uncommon angiopathy associated with heterogeneous histological changes that may affect the carotid circulation and the visceral and peripheral arteries.
