Portal Hypertension
Portal hypertension, also known as primary hypertension, is a type of hypertension that occurs in the renal medulla, which is the part of the kidney responsible for filtering blood. It is characterized by high blood pressure in the renal medulla, which can lead to damage to the blood vessels and organs that supply the kidneys. Symptoms of portal hypertension may include headaches, dizziness, or lightheadedness, and it can also cause damage to the kidneys over time. Treatment typically involves medication to lower blood pressure and manage symptoms. If left untreated, portal hypertension can lead to more serious complications such as kidney damage or failure. Therefore, it is important to seek medical attention if you experience any symptoms of portal hypertension.
