Abstract

The hypertension in children is relatively rare disease and renal arterial disease does constitute a relatively more common cause of hypertension in children. Recently, we experienced a case of renovascular hypertension due to left renal artery stenosis in 11-year-old boy, corrected by splenorenal bypass and good result was obtained. Herein we report a reconstructive vascular procedure with some literatures.
