Key result
Constricting lesions of the renal artery, such as an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta, can produce renal ischemia and coexisting hypertensive vascular disease.

May warrant evaluation for secondary hypertension in select patients; extends experimental models to human atherosclerotic lesions but leaves open management implications.
Case Report
Renal ischemia, whether produced experimentally in dogs or by atherosclerotic narrowing in humans, is a recognized cause of hypertensive vascular disease.
Byron J. Hoffman (1942) conducted a case report in Hypertension and renal ischemia. Aneurysm of abdominal aorta was evaluated. Constricting lesions of the renal artery, such as an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta, can produce renal ischemia and coexisting hypertensive vascular disease.
