Micturitional headache in a young girl.
A 16-year-old girl came to our emergency department because of severe headache. For the past 3 years, she had presented at several emergency departments with a similar problem. When she was hospitalized for further investigation, she developed severe arterial hypertension for which an unusual cause was found by imaging of the abdomen.
