Popis: The most important cause of renal hypertension is actually an extrarenal disease, occlusive disease of the renal arteries. Arteriosclerosis is responsible for the majority of these lesions, and stenosing fibroplasia accounts for a smaller group. The renal arterial plaques that are now being recognized in middle-aged hypertensive patients have a grave potential in terms of loss of renal function.
