Abstract:
Objective To assess the clinical efficacy of interventional management for the treatment of renal artery stenosis. Methods Percutaneous transluminal balloon renal angioplasty and / or percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting were performed in 47 patients with renal artery stenosis (55 stenosed arteries in total). A follow-up study on the blood pressure and renal function was conducted and the results were statistically analyzed. Results Fifty-four stenosed renal arteries were successfully reopened,of which only percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty was adopted in 17 and percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting in 37. One patient died during the procedure. A follow-up for a mean period of (2.5 ? 0.6) years was carried out. The blood pressure determined at one (n = 46),6 (n = 46),12 (n = 33) and 24 (n = 29) months after the treatment was significantly decreased when compared to that determined before the treatment (P
