Interventional Therapies for Secondary and Essential Hypertension

Updates in Hypertension and Cardiovascular Protection Series editors Giuseppe Mancia Milano, Italy Enrico Agabiti Rosei Brescia, Italy

The aim of this series is to provide informative updates on both the knowledge and the clinical management of a disease that, if uncontrolled, can very seriously damage the human body and is still among the leading causes of death worldwide. Although hypertension is associated mainly with cardiovascular, endocrine, and renal disorders, it is highly relevant to a wide range of medical specialties and fields – from family medicine to physiology, genetics, and pharmacology. The topics addressed by volumes in the series Updates in Hypertension and Cardiovascular Protection have been selected for their broad significance and will be of interest to all who are involved with this disease, whether residents, fellows, practitioners, or researchers.
