Spontaneous renal artery dissection: long-term outcomes after endovascular stent placement.

30 Jul 2009 PURPOSE: To report long-term clinical and morphologic results after stent placement for spontaneous renal artery dissection (SRAD). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between 1991 and 2006, 16 consecutive patients (13 men; mean age, 42 y +/- 12) presented with ... Read more...

[Circulatory disorders of the renal and mesenteric arteries]

30 Jul 2009 Symptomatic mesenteric circulatory disorders are potentially life-threatening diseases with an increasing frequency due to the demographic population development. Renal artery stenosis is a well accepted cause of hypertension or at least ... Read more...

Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis: current therapy and future developments.

30 Jul 2009 Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis affects between 2 and 4 million people in the United States alone and likely has a higher prevalence than previously thought. Renal artery stenosis has been increasingly recognized in recent years, especially in ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Renal Artery Obstruction'

Definition: Narrowing or occlusion of the RENAL ARTERY or arteries. It is due usually to ATHEROSCLEROSIS; FIBROMUSCULAR DYSPLASIA; THROMBOSIS; EMBOLISM, or external pressure. The reduced renal perfusion can lead to renovascular hypertension (HYPERTENSION, RENOVASCULAR).

Descriptor UI: D012078

Alternative terms: Renal Artery Obstruction; Obstruction, Renal Artery; Obstructions, Renal Artery; Renal Artery Obstructions; Renal Artery Stenosis; Renal Artery Stenoses; Stenoses, Renal Artery; Stenosis, Renal Artery;
