Article Synopsis
- - Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation that leads to issues like vascular and neurological abnormalities.
- - Serious complications can include moyamoya syndrome, which causes the progressive narrowing of brain arteries, and renal artery stenosis, a common cause of high blood pressure in NF1 patients.
- - The article reviews clinical cases of NF1 vasculopathy, focusing on diagnosis, management, and potential future strategies for screening and treatment options.

Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a chronic, idiopathic large vessel vasculitis mainly affecting the aorta and its major branches. It is one of the common causes of reno-vascular hypertension in Indian children. We report a ten-year-old boy who presented with hypertensive encephalopathy, proteinuria, and haematuria without any renal dysfunction.

The lymphatic system is an integral part of the circulatory system and plays an important role in the fluid homeostasis of the human body. Accumulating evidence has recently suggested the involvement of lymphatic dysfunction in the pathogenesis of cardio-reno-vascular (CRV) disease. However, how the sophisticated contractile machinery of lymphatic vessels is modulated and, possibly impaired in CRV disease, remains largely unknown.

Renal artery calcifications can be associated with insufficient stent expansion and in-stent restenosis. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) uses shockwaves to disrupt calcium and treat calcific renal in-stent restenosis. Herein, the authors present a case to treat resistant reno-vascular hypertension and in-stent restenosis of an inadequately expanded renal stent in a patient with severe calcific renal artery stenosis.
