title: A rare case of intimal fibroplasia in a 20-month-old child.
abstract: Fibromuscular dysplasia is a rare finding in children, with only 30 patients aged <18 years listed in the US Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia as of March 2014. Intimal fibroplasia accounts for only 10% of fibromuscular disease. Our 20-month-old patient represents a rare case of pediatric intimal fibroplasia resulting in a loss of renal function, who was treated successfully with an open nephrectomy.
