  2. Renovascular hypertension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renovascular_hypertension

    Treatment Antihypertensive, Stress reduction [ 1 ] Renovascular hypertension is a condition in which high blood pressure is caused by the kidneys ' hormonal response to narrowing of the arteries supplying the kidneys . [ 1 ]

  3. Renal artery stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_artery_stenosis

    Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is the narrowing of one or both of the renal arteries, most often caused by atherosclerosis or fibromuscular dysplasia.This narrowing of the renal artery can impede blood flow to the target kidney, resulting in renovascular hypertension – a secondary type of high blood pressure.

  4. Kidney ischemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_ischemia

    Kidney ischemia [1] is a disease with a high morbidity and mortality rate. [2] Blood vessels shrink and undergo apoptosis which results in poor blood flow in the kidneys. More complications happen when failure of the kidney functions result in toxicity in various parts of the body which may cause septic shock, hypovolemia, and a need for surgery. [3]

    Symptoms: Abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fever. [1] Complications: Acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. [1] Causes: Cardioembolic disease, renal artery injury, and hypercoagulable state. [1] Diagnostic method: Hematuria, elevated lactate dehydrogenase, CT scan. [1] Differential diagnosis: Renal colic and acute pyelonephritis ...

    Symptoms may include headaches, insomnia, fatigue, and chest or abdominal pain. FMD affecting the arteries of the head and neck is commonly recognized as a cause of childhood strokes. [7] In children, renovascular disease accounts for approximately 10% of all causes of secondary hypertension. [8]

  7. Dialysis disequilibrium syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialysis_disequilibrium...

    Dialysis disequilibrium syndrome is a reason why hemodialysis initiation should be done gradually, i.e. it is a reason why the first few dialysis sessions are shorter and less aggressive than the typical dialysis treatment for end-stage renal disease patients. [citation needed]

  8. Hypertensive kidney disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertensive_kidney_disease

    The aim of the medical treatment is to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease by reducing blood pressure and albumin levels. [14] The current published guidelines define ideal BP of <130/80 mmHg for patients with hypertensive nephropathy; studies show that anything higher or lower than this can increase cardiovascular risk.

  9. Renal cortical necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_cortical_necrosis

    Renal cortical necrosis (RCN) is a rare cause of acute kidney failure.The condition is "usually caused by significantly diminished arterial perfusion of the kidneys due to spasms of the feeding arteries, microvascular injury, or disseminated intravascular coagulation" and is the pathological progression of acute tubular necrosis.
