title: [Ureteropelvic junction obstruction with renal hypertension].
abstract: Renal hypertension can occur with unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction and consecutive hydronephrosis. It is rarely the main symptom, normally in adults flank pain is in the foreground. We report a case of renal hypertension with ureteropelvic junction obstruction successfully corrected by laparoscopic pyeloplasty and discuss the pathophysiology.
