Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (RAS) is the single largest cause of secondary hypertension; it is associated with progressive renal insufficiency and causes cardiovascular complications such as refractory heart failure and flash pulmonary edema. Medical therapy, including risk factor modification, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system antagonists,

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 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 require revascularization.

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
Among the indications for renal artery revascularization, either surgical or endovascular, in patients with renal artery stenosis are poorly controlled hypertension, ischemic nephropathy (preservation of renal function), or recurrent episodes of "flash" pulmonary edema and congestive heart failure.

Renal artery stenosis in children
Clinical Radiology, 1991In a large paediatric renal unit over the last 14 years, 19 children (10 male and 9 female, aged 1 week to 16 years, mean 7 years) with renal artery stenosis (RAS) were evaluated. Transplant RAS cases were not included. All 19 children were hypertensive. In 10 this was an incidental finding.

Cardiology in Review, 2003
Indications and timing of revascularization for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis are topics of considerable controversy. Labile hypertension, progressive renal failure, and flash pulmonary edema may be strong indications for revascularization, yet revascularization may carry significant morbidity and mortality risks. Medical therapy alone, however,

Revascularization in Renal Artery Stenosis
Cardiology in Review, 2012The predominant cause of renal artery stenosis (RAS) is atherosclerosis. Clinical manifestations of atherosclerotic RAS are both direct (hypertension and kidney dysfunction) and indirect (increased cardiovascular events and mortality). However, in many cases, atherosclerotic RAS seems to be an incidental finding with no discernable effects ...

Renal Artery Stenosis-An Update
Postgraduate Medicine, 2013Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is a common form of peripheral arterial disease. The most common cause of RAS is atherosclerosis. It is predominantly unilateral. The pathophysiologic mechanism stems from renal underperfusion resulting in the activation of the renin- angiotensin-aldosterone pathway.

Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and aortoarteritis are the most frequent causes of secondary hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis (RAS). Revascularization of this disease entity usually cures arterial hypertension. Demographic evolution leads to an increasing incidence of atherosclerotic RAS, one of the major causes of end-stage renal failure ...

Imaging of renal artery stenosis
Current Opinion in Urology, 1998Renal artery stenosis is the cause of progressive ischemic nephropathy and of renovascular hypertension. Due to the invasiveness of arteriography, which is claimed to be the gold standard at the present time, several noninvasive imaging techniques are available.

Prostaglandin and renal artery stenosis
Prostaglandins, 1973Abstract This study in dogs demonstrated that the prostaglandin PGA1 could alter the renal excretory pattern and renal renin secretion produced by partial renal artery occlusion. It gives support to the hypothesis that a prostaglandin (s) has to be considered in the biological reponse to partial renal artery occlusion.
