Usefulness of Renal Autotransplantation for Radiotherapy-induced Renovascular Hypertension

We experienced a young woman with congestive heart failure (CHF) caused by renovascular hypertension (RVH) and subsequent hypertensive heart disease. She underwent tumor resection and intraoperative radiation therapy because of neuroblastoma at age 2. She was diagnosed with RVH and hypertensive hear...

Descripción
Sumario:We experienced a young woman with congestive heart failure (CHF) caused by renovascular hypertension (RVH) and subsequent hypertensive heart disease. She underwent tumor resection and intraoperative radiation therapy because of neuroblastoma at age 2. She was diagnosed with RVH and hypertensive heart disease due to radiation-induced renal artery stenosis at age 12. Thereafter, she was hospitalized with CHF caused by uncontrolled RVH at age 19, and renal autotransplantation with extraction of left kidney was performed after the recovery of CHF. Her blood pressure has been well controlled without CHF readmission during four years of follow-up after the operation.
