Abstract
Forty-two patients with renovascular hypertension were treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. In 32, arteritis was the cause of the renovascular disease. Thirty of the 42 patients were followed for more than 6 months after angioplasty. Twenty-two of these 30 patients had arteritis; 19 of the 22 (86.4%) benefited from the angioplasty, compared with six of eight patients (75%) with atherosclerosis or fibromuscular dysplasia.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
