What Is Renal Hypertension?

Renal hypertension is mainly due to elevated blood pressure caused by renal parenchymal disease and renal artery disease. It is called renal hypertension in symptomatic hypertension. Its pathogenesis and pathological characteristics: First, the pathological characteristics of renal parenchymal disease are characterized by glomerular hyaline degeneration, interstitial tissue or connective tissue hyperplasia, renal tubular atrophy, and renal arterial stenosis, which has caused substantial renal damage. There are also insufficient blood supplies. The second is the hyperplasia of the mucous myofibers of the renal arterial wall, which forms most small aneurysms. The third is non-specific Takayasu arteritis, which causes insufficient renal blood perfusion.

Renal hypertension is mainly due to elevated blood pressure caused by renal parenchymal disease and renal artery disease.

Renal hypertension is a type of secondary hypertension, mainly due to renal parenchymal disease

To be diagnosed with renal hypertension, it needs to be distinguished from the following diseases:

(1) Endocrine hypertension: hypercortisolism in endocrine disorders,

More and more patients are suffering from hypertension. Unreasonable diet, excessive cholesterol intake, heavy alcohol consumption,

Renal hypertension includes two types of renal parenchymal hypertension and renal vascular hypertension. The chance of various kidney diseases to cause hypertension is related to the nature of its disease, its effect on glomerular function, and the degree of renal parenchymal ischemia. Generally, glomerulonephritis, lupus kidney, congenital renal dysplasia and other lesions are more extensive, and may be accompanied by vascular disease or renal ischemia, so hypertension often occurs, while kidney stones and pyelonephritis have less chance of secondary hypertension .

In addition, renal hypertension is associated with renal function status. Renal hypotension tends to increase blood pressure, and more than 80% of late renal failure is accompanied by hypertension.

Renal hypertension is extremely harmful and should be actively treated with care and treatment. While treating hypotension, care should be taken to protect renal function, and drugs that have no effect on or increase renal blood flow should be used to prevent some drugs from causing greater damage to renal function.

For patients with hypertension, antihypertensive drugs are never left, but in winter, the sphygmomanometer should not be left. Especially for patients with unstable blood pressure, it is recommended to measure blood pressure 2 to 3 times a day to observe changes in blood pressure in the morning, midnight and night, to avoid cardio-cerebral vascular accidents caused by sudden rise in blood pressure. There are many measures that can be used to regulate blood pressure in life, such as diet and mood, which have a great impact on the condition of hypertension.
