Summary:ABSTRACT: We report the cases of three women with resistant hypertension who had no adequate response to pharmacological treatment with more than five classes of different anti-hypertensive drugs given in optimal doses and with appropriate schedules. Secondary causes of hypertension were ruled out. Percutaneous renal denervation therapy was successful and without complications. Clinical follow-up revealed significant improvement in the control of hypertension.
