Renal artery stenosis associated with Crohn disease

Although extraintestinal complications involving skin, joints, eyes and liver are common in children with inflammatory bowel disease, hypertension is rare. We report data from a 16-year-old boy with renovascular hypertension and Crohn disease. To our knowledge, a patient with renal artery stenosis associated with Crohn disease has not been previously reported. Possible causes of renal vascular lesion in Crohn disease are discussed.
