Reversible hypertension in a young female: ureteric obstruction due to endometriosis.

We present the case of a young female who, upon investigation for hypertension, was found to have a ureteric stricture secondary to endometriosis. After excision of the stricture and an end-to-end ureteric anastomosis the patient's blood pressure returned to normal. This case highlights the need to investigate fully hypertension in young people and to consider the possibility of endometriosis in any female who presents with obstructive uropathy.
