Post-Transplant Renal Artery Stenosis: Impact of Therapy on Long-Term Kidney Function and Blood Pressure Control

Abstract

Most patients with transplant renal artery stenosis can be treated successfully. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is the initial interventive treatment of choice for high grade renal artery stenosis. Surgical revascularization is indicated if percutaneous transluminal angioplasty cannot be done or is unsuccessful.
