Abstract

The Ask-Upmark kidney represents an unusual manifestation of a segmental hypoplastic kidney in which the lesion may be local or diffuse, and may involve one or both kidneys. It is almost always associated with hypertension and is, therefore, potentially curable when localized to a single kidney. It is imperative to recognize this disease in order to distinguish it from other entities that cause hypertension.

摘要

Ask-Upmark肾是节段性肾发育不全的一种特殊表现，其病变可为局限性或弥漫性，可累及一侧或双侧肾脏。它几乎总是与高血压相关，因此，当局限于一侧肾脏时有可能治愈。认识这种疾病对于将其与其他导致高血压的疾病相鉴别至关重要。
