Renal Vascular Diseases GENERAL OUTLINE • I. Hypertension • “Benign” Nephrosclerosis • “Malignant” Nephrosclerosis • Renal Artery Stenosis • Thrombotic Microangiopathies • Miscellaneous Vascular Diseases HYPERTENSION • Definition: diastolic > 90 mm Hg or systolic > 140 mm Hg • pre-hypertension: 120/80 – 139/89 • Prevalence: • 20-25% population • 4th and later decades • 60% population after age 70 • Approximately 72 million in US • Complications: CVA, LVH and CHF, coronary • artery disease, renal disease
TYPES OF HYPERTENSION • Primary Hypertension (Idiopathic) (could be genetic/polymorphisms w/mutations of Na Channels (90 - 95%) • Secondary Hypertension (5 - 10%) Renal • Acute Glomerulonephritis • Chronic Renal Disease • Polycystic Disease • Renal Artery Stenosis • Renal Vasculitis • Renin-producing Tumors (Juxtaglomerular Tumor) BP: Regulated by adjustments to CO and peripheral resistance. CO is influenced by blood volume. Blood volume is controlled by Na concentrations which is a major function of the kidney! • Endocrine • Cardiovascular • Neurologic Consequences of HTN: Cardiac disease and stroke Renal and retinal disease (half die of cardiac disease, 15% cerebrovascular accident, 10% renal failure) HTN primary renal injury ESRD
Renal Vascular Diseases Primary (aka essential) hypertension is probably due to a combination of genetic factors and environmental factors: genetic; environmental; habits such as smoking, diet, alcohol; occupation; living conditions; and a host of other factors Essential hypertension is mainly treated by adjusting these factors, for example, reducing dietary intake of salt, performing moderate exercise, improve living conditions and in unresponsive cases, supplemented by antihypertensive drugs such as diuretics and ACE inhibitors. The main causes of secondary hypertension are: Renovascular Disorder, Renal Parenchymal Disease, Coarctation of the Aorta, Pheochromocytoma , Pregnancy Induced Hypertension.
