Hypertensive renal disease without renal failure - what does this mean
Hypertensive renal disease without renal failure is caused by high blood pressure that damages the small blood vessels in the kidneys, leading to reduced blood flow to the kidneys and reduced kidney function. the damage can result in proteinuria, microalbuminuria, and other changes in the kidney's ability to filter waste from the blood.
What happens during the disease - hypertensive renal disease without renal failure
Hypertensive renal disease is caused by long-term high blood pressure, which damages the kidneys and impairs their ability to filter out waste products from the body. this leads to an accumulation of toxins in the body, which can cause damage to the renal structures and impair their function. over time, this can cause a decrease in renal function, leading to a state of hypertension without renal failure.

- Imaging tests such as an ultrasound or CT scan to check for signs of damage to the kidneys
- Renal biopsy to check for signs of inflammation or scarring
- Renal angiography to check for blockages in the renal arteries
- Renal function tests to measure glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance
- Kidney transplant evaluation if renal failure is present
- Genetic testing to identify any underlying genetic causes
