Three children with sickle cell disease who had various combinations of severe hypertension, convulsion, and cerebral haemorrhage are presented. One child had elevated plasma renin activity while another had elevated 24-h urinary catecholamines. The aetiology of hypertension in sickle cell disease seems to be multifactorial. Recognition of this serious complication of sickle cell disease is important not only to avoid its consequences but also to avoid potentially dangerous diagnostic procedures.
本文介绍了三名患有镰状细胞病的儿童，他们患有严重高血压、惊厥和脑出血的不同组合。一名儿童血浆肾素活性升高，另一名儿童24小时尿儿茶酚胺升高。镰状细胞病高血压的病因似乎是多因素的。认识到镰状细胞病的这种严重并发症很重要，不仅是为了避免其后果，也是为了避免潜在危险的诊断程序。
