Abstract

Constrictive renal artery atherosclerosis is a cause of renovascular hypertension in 80% of cases.
Materials and methods. Renal artery stenting was performed in 38 patients in the department of endovascular diagnostic and treatment during the period from January 2010 till March 2013. Angiographic and antihypertensive efficacy and safety of the method was evaluated.
Results. During in-hospital period, a significant decrease in SBP and DBP was achieved. Follow-up of 24 patients in October-November 2013 showed stent restenosis in one patient.
Conclusion. Angioplasty with stenting in atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis is a safe and effective method of blood flow restoring and leads to good immediate (angiographic and clinical) and long-term results.
