Apr 30th, 2021 - In the present comprehensive review, we describe the pathophysiology, indications, and evidence for both renal artery stenting and renal artery denervation. We also discuss the procedural techniques, risks, benefits, and future directions of renal...

Apr 27th, 2021 - Endovascular treatment is standard of care for transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS). No study has evaluated long-term outcomes compared between percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) and PTRA with stenting (PTRAS). Accordingly, this...

Apr 25th, 2021 - Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is a common vascular complication after kidney transplantation, leading to worsening or refractory hypertension, deterioration in renal function, and possible cause of graft loss. Early diagnosis and an appr...

Apr 23rd, 2021 - We present a case of severe renal artery stenosis that mimicked a rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with acute kidney injury, active urine sediments and severe hypertension. Simultaneous presence of secondary hyperaldosteronism and hypokalemi...

Mar 22nd, 2021 - Renal artery stenosis is the most common secondary cause of hypertension and predominantly caused by atherosclerosis. In suspected patients, a non-invasive diagnosis with ultrasound is preferred. Asymptomatic, incidentally found RAS does not requi...

Nov 5th, 2017 - Renovascular hypertension is the most common type of secondary hypertension and is estimated to have a prevalence between 0.5% and 5% of the general hypertensive population, and an even higher prevalence among patients with severe hypertension and...

Aug 1st, 2011 - We updated the evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis, assessment, prevention, and treatment of hypertension in adults for 2011. The major guideline changes this year are: (1) a recommendation was made for using comparative risk analogie...

Aug 15th, 2016 - No high-quality evidence exists to suggest a benefit to stenting for renal artery stenosis on hard clinical endpoints, a systemic review of the literature determined. Percutaneous renal angioplasty with stent placement was comparable with medical ...

Aug 1st, 2015 - No. In patients with severe atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis and hypertension or chronic kidney disease, renal artery stenting offers no additional benefit when added to comprehensive medical therapy.

Aug 1st, 2015 - In their article in this issue of the Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, Kabach et al answer no to the question of whether stenting of severe renal artery stenosis improves outcomes compared with medical therapy alone. 1 They review the findings.

Mar 3rd, 2015 - There are still indications to treat renal artery occlusive disease BY MATTHEW A. CORRIERE, M.

Sep 18th, 2014 - Seth Bilazarian, MD: Hi. This is Seth Bilazarian from theheart However we also looked at the per protocol population -- patients who actually underwent the therapies as written in the protocol. One patient randomized to sham control never received...
