Title: The accessory artery in essential hypertension. Author: Ooi BS, Yu SF, Chen BT, Khoo OT. Journal: Postgrad Med J; 1971 Apr; 47(546):197-8. PubMed ID: 5576487. Abstract: Ninety hypertensive patients were investigated by intravenous pyelography, abdominal aortography, and renal biopsy.

These differences in distribution are statistically significant, and the relationship between accessory arteries and primary hypertension is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
