Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of percutaneous stenting for renal artery stenosis. Methods Stent implantation was conducted in 27 patients(Interventional Group) with renal artery stenosis from January 1997 to December 2004 in this hospital.Patients' blood pressure,renal functions,and quality of life were recorded and compared with another group of 27 patients receiving medical treatment(Medical Group) during this time. Results The procedure of renal artery stenting was superior to the medical treatment in antihypertensive effect,renal function improvement,raise of life quality,and increase of survival rate.The procedure offered a high success rate(88.9%,24/27) and low re-stenosis rate(12.5%,3/24) and an incidence of complications(18.5%,5/27).The Interventional Group was remarkably superior to the Medical Group with respect to the decrease of blood pressure and creatinine and the increase of glomerular filtration rate,with significant differences.Follow-ups for 6 months ~ 8 years and 6 months(median,1 year and 9 months) revealed that normal daily activities and works were achieved in 19 patients in the Interventional Group and in 12 patients in the Medical Group. Conclusions Percutaneous renal artery stenting in the treatment of renal artery stenosis is effective.
