Abstract:
Objective To assess the outcome of renal artery stenosis approached by percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) and stents.Methods Seventy-two patients (50 males and 22 female) were diagnosed as renal stenosis by renal angiography.Of them,68 cases were with atherosclerosis.The PTRA was done via femoral access site.Changes in blood vessel diameter and blood flow nd complications were recorded.Renal angiograph was performed to check the restenosis.Patient’s blood pressure and serum creatine level before and after the were observed.Results Angiograph showed unilateral artery lesion in 60 cases and bilateral stenosis in 12 cases.The ostium was involved in 72 sites and mid-part in 8.The lumen diameter of stenosis was 60%-95%.The stents were successfully implanted in 68 cases with 78 stents and 4 cases only by balloon.The lumen diameter of lesion increased from 2.0mm (0.8-2.6mm) to 6.5mm (4.0-8.0mm).TIMI flow decreased in 3 cases and renal function was impaired in 4 cases,but not severe.Blood pressure in 42 cases with hypertension decreased significantly.One case was complicated with perirenal hematoma.and there was no perioperative death.Conclusion PTRA and stenting treatment for renal artery disease are feasible and safe.
