Abstract:
Noonan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by dysmorphic facial features, congenital heart defects and short stature. To date, renal artery stenosis has not been associated with Noonan syndrome. We report the case of a 27-year old male who presented with malignant hypertension associated with renal artery stenosis, dysmorphic facial features, pectus excavatum, pulmonary stenosis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who was diagnosed with Noonan syndrome.
