dc.description.abstractEight cases of renovascular hypertension (RVH) encountered in the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan. Nigeria between 1977 and 1982 are presented and reviewed along with four additional cases, previously reported from this hospital. Seven of these cases were due to fibromuscular disease (FMD); four were due to involvement of the renal arteries by aortic aneurysms and one was due to Takayasu's adenopathy. No case due to atherosclerosis was seen, which is in sharp contrast to the situation in the western world where atherosclerosis is the commonest cause of renal artery stenosis (RAS). Detection and management of RVH are highlighted and the current concepts and features of FMD are briefly discussed.en_US
