Abstract |
The cardinal features of Ask-Upmark kidney include unilateral and, less commonly, bilateral segmental hypo- plasia characterized by capsular grooves and decrease in the number of pyramids. The hypoplastic areas con- tain no glomeruli but have thyroid-like tubules and thick-walled arteries. The association of hypertension with segmental renal hypoplasia was first described in 1929 by Ask-Upmark. Numberous subsequent reports have confirmed the high frequency of this relationship. We have experienced a 18-year-old girl who had headache and dyspnea on exertion. We diagnosed Ask- Upmark kidney by renal angiography and made a brief review of related literature. |
