-==Overview==
+==[[Retroperitoneal fibrosis overview|Overview]]==
-'''Retroperitoneal fibrosis''' or '''Ormond's disease''' is a disease featuring the proliferation of fibrous tissue in the [[retroperitoneum]], the compartment of the body containing the [[kidney]]s, [[aorta]], [[renal tract]] and various other structures. It may present with [[lower back pain]], [[renal failure]], [[hypertension]], [[deep vein thrombosis]] and other obstructive symptoms.

-==Causes==
+==[[Retroperitoneal fibrosis causes|Causes]]==
-Its association with various immune-related conditions and response to [[immunosuppression]] have led to speculations as to the [[autoimmune disorder|autoimmune]] etiology of idiopathic RPF. One-third of the cases are secondary to [[malignancy]], medication ([[methysergide]], [[hydralazine]], [[beta blocker]]s), [[aortic aneurysm]] or certain infections.

 ==Treatment==
-In the absence of severe urinary tract obstruction (which generally requires [[surgery]] with omental wrapping) treatment is generally with [[glucocorticoid]]s initially, followed by [[DMARD]]s either as steroid-sparing agents or if refractory on steroids. The SERM [[tamoxifen]] has shown to improve the condition in various small trials, although the exact mechanism of its action remains unclear.
