Renovascular Arterial Hypertension Due to Triple Renal Arteries Stenoses: One Session Successful Stenting
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a case of a 65 year old white male with atherosclerosis, severe left triple renal arteries stenoses and secondary renovascular hypertension (RVH). The patient was treated in a single session by percutaneous balloon angioplasty and stenting of the three left renal arteries with important atherosclerotic lesions. The uneventful evolution permitted patient’s discharge next day after the intervention, with antihypertensive and antiplatelet therapy. The authors discuss successively the morphogenetic phenomena involved in multiple renal arteries apparition, the historical contribution of a Renascence anatomist to the description of renal blood supply variants and recent trends in atherosclerotic RVH (interventional versus medical approach).

Vascular color Doppler ultrasound for assessing renovascular hypertension: accuracy of the direct technique for assessing the renal arteries.
OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy of vascular color Doppler ultrasound as compared with digital subtraction arteriography for identifying hemodynamically significant renal artery stenoses. METHODS One hundred and thirty-seven renal arteries from 69 adult patients suspected of having renovascular arterial hypertension were prospectively studied with ultrasound. The results obtained were compare...

BACKGROUND Midaortic syndrome (MAS) is a rare vascular anomaly characterized by segmental narrowing of the distal descending thoracic or abdominal aorta. Renal or visceral arteries may also be affected to varying degrees. MAS is often associated with renovascular hypertension, and requires early intervention. When medical therapy and percutaneous interventions fail to control hypertension, surg...
متن کاملFibromuscular dysplasia
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), formerly called fibromuscular fibroplasia, is a group of nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory arterial diseases that most commonly involve the renal and carotid arteries. The prevalence of symptomatic renal artery FMD is about 4/1000 and the prevalence of cervicocranial FMD is probably half that. Histological classification discriminates three main subtypes, intima...
متن کاملReversible renin-dependent renovascular hypertension successfully treated with percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty and stenting.
A 37-year old woman was suspected of having renovascular hypertension because of recent onset severe hypertension (blood pressure 220/135 mmHg; compared to 132/65 mmHg two years earlier) and an abdominal bruit. A captopril renal scan indicated the presence of right renal artery stenosis. Additionally, a captopril plasma renin activity (PRA) provocation test showed a positive result for renovasc...
متن کاملSuccessfully treated "accelerated" renovascular hypertension with intravascular stenting.
A 76-year-old man developed progressive renal dysfunction with refractory hypertension. Bilateral renal artery stenosis due to atherosclerosis was revealed. Both the hypertension and renal dysfunction were improved by percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty with stenting. Based on the rapidly progressive elevation of plasma renin activity and the improvement of both renal dysfunction and hy...
