Tree Number(s): C12.050.351.968.419.775; C12.200.777.419.775; C12.950.419.775; C14.907.137.727
Unique ID: D012078
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012078
Annotation: renal artery thrombosis: coordinate IM with THROMBOSIS (IM); consider also HYPERTENSION, RENOVASCULAR (hypertension caused by renal artery obstruction or compression)
Scope Note: Narrowing or occlusion of the RENAL ARTERY or arteries. It is due usually to ATHEROSCLEROSIS; FIBROMUSCULAR DYSPLASIA; THROMBOSIS; EMBOLISM, or external pressure. The reduced renal perfusion can lead to renovascular hypertension (HYPERTENSION, RENOVASCULAR).
Entry Term(s): Renal Artery Stenosis
NLM Classification #: WJ 300
See Also: Hypertension, Renovascular
