Abstract
|
|
|
Primary thrombocythemia is a myeloproliferative disorder with markedly increased production of platelet and is frequently associated with thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications. We report a case of primary thrombocythemia associated with
renovascular hypertension. In this patient, primary thrombocythemia was diagnosed with peripheral blood count, bone marrow examination and platelet function test, and renovascular hypertension was confirmed by angiogram, and renal vein renin
activities
which were lateralized to the right kidney. Aorto-renal graft was done, and open biopsy showed renal infarction and mesangial proliferative glomerulopathy. In was suggested that increased platelet number may play a role in renal artery stenosis
in
this
cases, and primary thrombocythemia can be considered as a rare condition among the differential diagnosis of renovascular hypertension.
