<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In this gross photograph of kidneys and the abdominal aorta, there is narrowing of the left renal artery at its ostium from the aorta. This atherosclerotic narrowing of the renal artery causes reduced blood pressure in the kidney whose artery is affected. The result is a characteristic Goldblatt’s hypertension syndrome. Note that the kidney with the narrowed renal artery is atrophied compared to the kidney with the normal vessel on the right. What is the cause of the atrophy in this kidney?</div>Peter Anderson
