Adreno-medullary hypertension: a review of syndromes, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment.
Hypertension may be attributable to various disorders involving the central or peripheral adrenergic (catecholamine) pathways. Pheochromocytoma is the best known of these disorders, but many syndromes mimic the clinical features of this tumor. In adreno-medullary hypertension, cardiovascular tissues are stimulated by activation of alpha or beta adrenergic receptors, or both. Specific diagnosis ...
متن کاملRenovascular Hypertension: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Renovascular hypertension can result from renal artery lesions involving the main renal artery, or its branches. It is generally felt that the elevation of blood pressure results from excessive systemic vasoconstriction secondary to enhanced renin secretion by one or part of one kidney. Renin secretion is enhanced because of constriction of the renal artery and resultant intrarenal ischemia. Cl...
متن کاملMyelodysplastic syndromes: review of pathophysiology and current novel treatment approaches.
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of clonal disorders of hematopoietic progenitors manifest by cytopenias, bleeding, infection, and potential for progression to acute myelogenous leukemia. The wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, including variability in illness severity and potential for progression, suggest that myelodysplastic syndromes encompass a multitude of d...
متن کاملNew Insights Into Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Renovascular Hypertension.
Renovascular disease includes renal artery stenosis, renovascular hypertension, and azotemic renovascular disease (ischemic nephropathy). Renovascular hypertension is defined as an elevated blood pressure caused by renal hypoperfusion, usually resulting from anatomic stenosis of the renal artery and activation of the renin-angiotensin system. It accounts for 1% to 2 % of all cases of hypertensi...
