Core Tip	The aim of this paper is to review resistant hypertension (RHTN), including primary and secondary causes. Renal artery stenosis is one of the secondary cause of RHTN but angioplasty and stenting of renal artery for management of RHTN has failed to show any benefit. Sympathetic nervous system dysfunction is commonly noted in individuals with resistant hypertension. Renal sympathetic nerve denervation is a minimally invasive procedure which may help improve management of RHTN. However, the Symplicity HTN-3 trial failed to show a meaningful reduction in BP and has questioned this approach.
