Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis [PDF]
Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (RAS) is a secondary cause of hypertension (1). RAS causes renal ischemia which leads to renin release from the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidneys (2). Renin release activates conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II and increases adrenal gland release of aldosterone (3).
