Abstract

In this case we are reporting on a patient suffering from malignant renovascular hypertension and chronic renal failure due to occlusion of both renal arteries. The acute renal insufficiency after Captopril and later on after Enalapril treatment was fully reversible. We believe that the acute reversible renal insufficiency was caused by the blockage of glomerular autoregulation depending on Angiotensin II.
