Abstract

Renovascular hypertension is an uncommon disease, but it causes 5–10% of all childhood hypertension. The most common cause of renal artery stenosis is fibromuscular dysplasia, resulting in at least 60% of renovascular hypertension cases. This report describes a case of a renal artery stenosis confirmed by multidetector computed tomographic angiography.
