Abstract:
In this case report, we describe an 83-year-old man with bilateral renal artery stenosis who had rapidly progressing acute renal failure and severe hypertension. These conditions improved dramatically after bilateral renal artery stenting. Renal artery stenosis can cause renal failure, hypertension, and heart failure, leading to a poorer life prognosis. If renal artery stenosis is found as a cause of acute renal failure, severe hypertension, or heart failure, it is useful to perform revascularization as soon as possible. Revascularization by stenting has a high success rate and is expected to improve the condition remarkably.
