Renal Artery Stenosis—Then and Now

Southern Medical Journal, 1975
Diagnostic approaches evolve steadily. Selective renal arteriography and determination of renal vein renins have replaced differential clearances and translumbar aortography. The hydrated intravenous pyelogram remains helpful in assessing physiologic significance and complements both aortography and renin determinations.

Epidemiology and optimal management in patients with renal artery stenosis.

JN. Journal of Nephrology (Milano. 1992), 2012
Renovascular hypertension (hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis) is a form of secondary hypertension caused by overactivation of the renin-angiotensin system by the ischemic kidney.

Renal allograft artery stenosis

The American Journal of Surgery, 1977
Thirteen renal artery stenoses occurred in 127 renal allograft transplantations performed at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center over a four year period. The most common symptoms were hypertension and decreasing renal function occurring from three days to three years post transplantation.

Revascularization in Renal Artery Stenosis

Cardiology in Review, 2012
The 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, 2013
Renal 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.

Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2003
The clinical diagnosis of renal artery stenosis relies on a high index of suspicion and confirmation by noninvasive imaging modalities. There are three distinct clinical syndromes associated with renal artery stenosis: renin-dependent hypertension, essential hypertension, and ischemic nephropathy.

Complicated Renal-Artery Stenosis

New England Journal of Medicine, 1964
THE appreciation of renal-artery lesions as a cause of systemic hypertension began with the work of Goldblatt et al.1 in 1934. This experimental finding was immediately implicated in human hypertension with overenthusiasm and eventual disillusionment by many workers in the field.
