Article Synopsis
- Previous trials found revascularization for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) ineffective; this study assessed percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with stent insertion (PTA/S) effects on kidney function and blood pressure (BP).
- Of 47 patients undergoing PTA/S, 21 were high-risk due to conditions like pulmonary edema and refractory hypertension, showing varied improvements in kidney function and significant BP control, especially in high-risk individuals.
- The results indicate PTA/S could enhance BP and kidney function in high-risk ARAS patients, emphasizing the need for individualized assessment for optimal outcomes.
