Abstract

Here we report the treatment experience of an 18-month-old female infant case of renovascular hypertension due to moyamoya disease by angioplasty. Although renal blood flow was recovered immediately after operation, 12 months follow-up found severe restenosis which required us to perform a right renal autotransplantation.
