Bilateral fibromuscular dysplasia of the renal arteries was the underlying pathology in a 51-year-old woman with severe hypokalemia and borderline hypertension. Very high renin levels were found in both renal veins. The secondary hyperaldosteronism was most probably responsible for the persistant hypokalemia in this patient.
