Abstract:
We successfully performed percutaneous transluminal angioplasty to treat severe renovascular hypertension with left ventricular failure in a 5-month-old infant. Using the transcarotid approach, we dilated the stenotic left renal artery without any difficulties, using progressively larger balloons designed for dilation of coronary arteries.
