Renal Vascular Disease
- Previous year questions on Renal Vascular Disease for NEET PG (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test - Postgraduate), from the Medicine section of the exam.
- Most questions here come from previous-year papers of Indian postgraduate medical entrance and licensing exams; where a paper and year are recorded the question carries them. The image-based questions are original vignettes written around an openly licensed figure, and were never asked in any exam.
- 15 live questions in Renal Vascular Disease.
- Medicine is worth about 33 of 300 questions on the exam. See every subject’s weightage.

Q7.Acute renal failure occurs following aoic angiography in a 72-year-old man. His weight has been rising, his lungs show rales at both bases, and he is dyspneic. His fractional excretion of sodium is greater than 1. He has eosinophilia on his peripheral smear, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and proteinuria with microscopic hematuria. Which of the following is the most likely cause of his renal failure?
- AHypovolemia

Q8.A 23-year-old woman with no other medical history was diagnosed with hypertension 6 months ago. She was initially treated with hydrochlorothiazide, followed by the addition of lisinopril, followed by a calcium channel blocker, but her blood pressure has not been well controlled. She assures the provider that she is taking all of her medicines. On examination her blood pressure is 165/105 in each arm, and 168/105 when checked by large cuff in the lower extremities. Her pulse is 60. Cardiac examination reveals an S4 gallop but no murmurs. She has a soft mid-abdominal bruit. Distal pulses are intact and equal. She does not have hyperpigmentation, hirsutism, genital abnormalities, or unusual distribution of fat. Her sodium is 140, potassium 4.0, HCO3 22, BUN 15, and creatinine 1.5. Which of the following is the most likely cause of her difficult-to-control hypertension?
- APrimary hyperaldosteronism (Conn syndrome)
- BCushing syndrome
- CCongenital adrenal hyperplasia
- DRenal artery fibromuscular dysplasia✓ Correct answer

- ABeta blocker
- BCalcium channel blocker
- CACE inhibitor✓ Correct answer
- DNone of the above
