Background : Secondary hypertension affect a small but significant number of the
hypertensive population and, unlike primary hypertension, is a potentially curable
condition. In young age, renal parenchimal disease and renovascular disease was
the most common to cause secondary hypertension. Renovasular hypertension is
defined as systemic hypertension due to oclussion or stenosis of renal artery.
Case presentation : A young female, 15 years old, Balinese came to emergency
room presented with headache, shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting. On
Physical examination found blood pressure 205/140 mmHg for right arm and 210/140
mmHg for left arm, pulse 120 x/min, equal pulsation for both arm, respiratory rate 22
x/min, temperature 36,8
o
C, VAS 3/10 and IMT 16,79 kg/m2. There was no
abdominal bruit. Laboratorium data showed AST 27 ɥ/L, ALT 28 ɥ/L, BUN 11, SC
0,61, Na 132 mmol/L, K 2,8 mmol/L. BGA with respiratory alkalosis and no
proteinuria.Chest X-Ray and BOF within normal limit, ECG with sinus tachycardia,
RAH and RVH. Echocardiography finding was hypertensive heart disease, mild PR,
with normal systolic and dyastolic function. From abdominal MSCT-scan with
contrast revealed right kidney with 8.2 x 3.05 x 3.3 cm in size, and stenosis right a.
Renalis as long as ± 0.12 cm and suspect right renal hypoplasia. In the fifth day of
admission, with combination of β-blocker and calcium antagonist as antihypertensive
therapy, the pain was resolved and the blood pressure maintained within normal limit
and planned for angiography and revascularization but the patient decided to
postpone the procedure.
