Abstract

Renal fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atherosclerotic, non-inflammatory vascular disease that can cause renovascular hypertension and, in some cases, progressive renal impairment. We report two cases of renal FMD presenting with hypertension and subsequent decline in renal function during long-term follow-up.
