Abstract

Hypertension is common in patients with end stage renal disease. However, in patients non-responsive to standard measures to control the blood pressure, non-renal causes should be considered. We present the case of a patient on haemodialysis with difficult to control blood pressure.

Keywords: end-stage renal disease; hypertension; paraganglioma
