Abstract
A patient with a history of drug abuse and histologically diagnosed he patitis B-related polyarteritis nodosa was admitted for severe hyperte nsion. After a cesarean section because of worsening of her clinical s tatus with severe proteinuria and edema, she improved dramatically. No sign of acute polyarteritis nodosa occurred.
