Abstract

A patient with hypertension (female: aged 48 years) associated with primary hyperparathyroidism and left renal artery thrombosis is described. Taking into account that the patient was treated on the left side by lithotripsy about two years before the development of hypertension while assuming an oral dose of an estro-progestinic compound, a possible role of these two conditions is discussed in the genesis of renal artery thrombosis and development of renal hypertension.
