the impact of genetic modulation of vein grafts on the development of intimal hyperplasia, and hold some promise in reducing or
minimizing this significant cause of vein graft failure.
126
Late graft
failures occurring beyond 2 years are typically due to progression
of atherosclerotic occlusive disease within the inflow or outflow
arteries.
Given the known incidence of graft failure and the potentially
dire consequence in terms of limb salvage or preservation of limb
function in a patient with limited options for secondary or tertiary
bypass, the ability to maintain graft patency through early identification and prompt correction of graft stenoses is of paramount
importance.
127
Serial postoperative surveillance scanning with a
duplex ultrasound has proved an excellent means of accurately
identifying hemodynamically significant stenoses within the vein
graft that threaten the graft patency.
128
Subsequent confirmation by
angiography and prophylactic treatment by percutaneous cutting
balloon angioplasty, surgical patch angioplasty, or interposition
grafting of significant lesions minimizes the risk of graft thrombosis and ensures optimal long-term graft patency.

RENAL ARTERY DISEASE
CHAPTER
22 Pathophysiology of Renal
Artery Disease
Stephen C. Textor
Vascular disease affecting the renal arteries presents complex
challenges to clinicians. Thanks to recent advances in vascular
imaging, more patients than ever before are being identified with
some degree of atherosclerotic or fibromuscular renovascular
disease. Many of these lesions are of minor hemodynamic
importance at the time of detection. Some reach a degree at
which perfusion pressures and intrarenal hemodynamics are
altered, leading to changes in blood pressure regulation and
renal function. These can produce a variety of recognizable clinical syndromes illustrated in Figure 22-1. These range from modest
changes in systemic arterial pressure to impaired volume control
associated with congestive heart failure (CHF) to threatened viability of the kidney, sometimes designated
Understanding the pathways by which renovascular disease affects
cardiovascular and renal disease is important for both diagnosis
and for defining optimal management using tools both to block
the renin-angiotensin system and to restore the circulation.
Most renovascular lesions are the result of atherosclerosis. With
the aging of the U.S. and other Western populations and reduced
mortality from stroke and coronary disease, the prevalence of
vascular disease in other vascular beds reaching clinically critical levels appears to be increasing.
clinical manifestations of these lesions, the potential for disease
progression, and the benefits and limitations of vascular repair
are essential for vascular medicine specialists. This chapter will
examine the pathophysiology of renovascular lesions regarding
blood pressure control, ischemic nephropathy, and clinical syndromes such as flash pulmonary edema. Specific issues regarding
diagnostic evaluation and management are addressed elsewhere
(see Chapter 23).
A wide range of lesions can affect the renal blood supply,
some of which are summarized in
ognition of renovascular disease resulted from searching for
underlying causes of hypertension. This followed the seminal
observations of Goldblatt more than 70 years ago2 that renal artery
constriction produced a rise in arterial pressure in the dog. These
studies were among the first to establish a primary role of the
kidney in overall blood pressure regulation. Renovascular hypertension produced by a “clipped” renal artery remains among the

but the most common is medial fibroplasia. Occasionally, such
lesions may be found in the carotid and other vascular beds, but
most commonly they are limited to the renal arteries. Most do not
progress to impair renal function, although some lead to arterial
dissection and/or thrombosis with loss of the kidney.
Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of renal artery
disease. Its presence and severity are related to age and the presence of other atherosclerotic disease of the descending aorta and
lower extremities. Population-based series, such as one from North
Carolina, indicate that among 834 subjects older than 65 years,
significant renal artery stenosis (RAS; defined as Doppler peak systolic velocity (PSV) above 1.8 m/s) can be identified in 6.8% of the
general population, regardless of race.7 Recent series of carotid,
coronary, and peripheral angiography indicate that the prevalence
of renovascular disease corresponds to overall atherosclerotic burden. Incidental renal artery occlusive disease (>

Peripheral vascular and aortic disease is associated with higher
prevalence (25%-33%). As expected, risk factors predicting the presence of RAS include smoking, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and
diabetes. A corollary observation is that renovascular hypertension
resulting from these lesions is now most commonly superimposed
gradually upon preexisting essential hypertension. Hence, the
blood pressure response and “cure” rates after successful restoration
of blood flows to the kidney are limited by preexisting conditions.

Pathophysiological Consequences
of Renovascular Disease
Under basal conditions, renal blood flow is among the highest of
all organs. This feature reflects the kidney's filtration function, and
less than 10% of delivered oxygen is sufficient to maintain renal
metabolic needs. Importantly, a fall in renal blood flow is accompanied by decreased oxygen consumption, partly due to reduced
metabolic demands of filtration and tubular solute reabsorption.
Reduced renal blood flow can be sustained without measurable
change in total kidney oxygen levels (as assessed by renal vein oxygen tension),

aorta (closed squares) occurred only after a translesional gradient between 10

Therefore, even relatively minor stenosis in the renal
artery might have long-term functional implications, especially in
the presence of additional risk factors or coexisting renal disease.
Subcritical Levels of Stenosis
The majority of renal artery lesions that compromise renal function are caused by gradually developing atherosclerosis of the renal
vascular bed. As noted earlier, some patients undergoing cardiac

and may lead to end-stage renal failure. Renal microvascular disease distal to a stenosis in the renal artery may perpetuate and exacerbate renal parenchymal injury and may blunt renal
recovery. The presence of small microvessel injury is difficult to
verify but may account for changes in diastolic blood flow such as
that producing changes in renal resistance index. Elevations of renal
resistance index have been proposed to predict poor outcomes in
many renal diseases, including renovascular disease.
Critical Renal Artery Stenosis
High-grade vascular stenosis eventually leads to a decrease in renal
perfusion pressure. Critical stenosis is identified when it produces
a fall in renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
21
Risk factors
24

During experimental renal artery occlusion, the kidney sustains
autoregulation of blood flow through a range of perfusion pressures
from 200 mmHg to approximately 80 mmHg. Mechanisms underlying autoregulation include myogenic responses to changes in wall
tension, release of vasoactive substances, and the tubuloglomerular feedback. The latter responds to decreased renal perfusion pressure and salt delivery by decreasing vascular resistance distal to the
obstruction. In addition, during a fall in renal perfusion pressure,
the kidney activates multiple pathways that elevate systemic blood
pressure, an effect that tends to restore renal perfusion pressure
and sustain renal blood flow at the expense of arterial hypertension (
Fig. 22-3). Consequently, as long as systemic arterial pressure is
allowed to rise, a fall in renal blood flow does not occur until renal
arterial diameter is reduced by 65% to 75%. Recent clinical studies suggest that noninvasive radiological imaging commonly overstates the degree of stenosis. Measurement of physiological stimuli,
such as the release of renin, indicate that a translesion gradient of
at least 10% to 20% reduction is necessary for biological responses
to occur in humans.
16
To achieve such a gradient, luminal occlusion may need to exceed 80% stenosis. Under some conditions, gradients above 20 mmHg that develop during intrarenal hyperemic
challenge with dopamine may disclose hemodynamic significance
of lesions under 60% in severity.
25
When renal perfusion pressure falls gradually, additional mechanisms are recruited that protect the kidney from the functional
and morphological consequences observed after acute ischemic
injury. These include development of collateral vessels and redistribution of intrarenal blood flow from the cortex to the medulla.
Renal cortical blood flow autoregulates more efficiently than
the outer medulla, which is continuously on the verge of anoxia.
During chronic reduction of renal blood flow, medullary perfusion
and oxygenation are relatively maintained by adaptive mechanisms at the expense of cortical blood flow.
26
When poststenotic
renal artery pressures eventually fall further, either due to progressive vascular occlusion or reduction of systemic blood pressures
by drug therapy, renal volume decreases.
In clinical terms, renal atrophy can be defined as a loss of renal
length by at least 1 centimeter, and a difference in size between
the two kidneys is suggestive of unilateral RAS (or a higher grade of
stenosis in one of the kidneys). A decrease in renal volume results
from a decrease in filling pressure, filtrate, and blood content of
the kidney, as well as structural atrophy of the renal tubules due
to apoptosis and necrosis. Apoptosis is an active, pre-programmed

However, if a blood flow deficit persists, permanent damage to the
kidney may occur. As mentioned, decreased renal blood flow is
often accompanied by a decline in GFR and inhibition of tubular epithelial transport that limit renal oxygen consumption and
maintain oxygen saturation. Hence, the kidney does not actually
develop “ischemia” until an extreme decrease in renal blood flow
develops.
RENOVASCULAR HYPERTENSION
Goldblatt et al and Loesch were the first to show in the 1930s
that obstruction of the renal artery is followed by an increase
in systemic blood pressure.
2,29
The characteristics of renovascular hypertension depend to a large extent on the status of the
kidneys. Unilateral RAS may be present with an intact contralateral renal artery (the experimental form is termed two-kidney, one-
clip, or 2K1C). This model is characterized by counterregulatory
processes in the contralateral kidney leading to sodium excretion
in response to elevated arterial pressure (pressure natriuresis;
Fig. 22-5A-B). Alternatively, RAS may affect a solitary kidney (one-
kidney, one-clip, or 1K1C;
Fig. 22-6A-B). Bilateral RAS and 1K1C lead
to more severe renovascular hypertension, although bilateral RAS
may behave similarly to 2K1C if one kidney is significantly less
ischemic than the other. Patients with this constellation of findings
have higher mortality, are more prone to circulatory congestion,
and are more likely to experience deterioration of kidney function
during administration of antihypertensive agents, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin II (Ang II)
receptor blockers (ARBs).
The exact mechanisms responsible for renovascular hypertension have long been debated. The immediate increase in blood
pressure in RAS results from release of renin from the stenotic
kidney. This leads to increased formation of Ang II, which
increases peripheral vascular resistance, plasma aldosterone,
sodium retention, extracellular volume, and cardiac output
(
Fig. 22-7). Early studies using ACE inhibitors30 and more recent
studies in an AT1A receptor knockout mouse model of 2K1C
confirm the essential role of Ang II in mediating Goldblatt
hypertension during its initial phase.
31
Experiments with kidney transplantation in these knockout strains indicate that both
renal and extrarenal angiotensin receptors participate in regulation of blood pressure.

Blockade of angiotensin action in
experimental models prevents the initial series of events and

sion
primarily via the renal afferent nerves. Both the peripheral
and central aspects of the autonomic system are also under the
influence of Ang II. If the increase in pressure restores renal
perfusion pressure distal to the stenosis, most of these alterations return to baseline levels, with the exception of peripheral
vascular resistance.
After the initial rise in activity from the renin-angiotensin system, maintenance of renovascular hypertension in 1K1C models depends mainly on volume expansion. In 2K1C, the interplay
between plasma renin activity and extracellular volume is more
complex. The contralateral kidney responds to the elevated
systemic pressure by increasing sodium excretion (pressure
natriuresis), an effect that tends to drive blood pressure down
and decrease perfusion pressure of the stenotic kidney. This effect
again leads to an increase in renin release, which in turn elevates
systemic blood pressure, and so forth. In high-grade RAS, this cycle
of events may induce extracellular volume depletion and renal
failure. Although these features are consistently demonstrated in

experimental models, human renovascular hypertension frequently has elements of both 1 K and 2 K pathophysiology, particularly
when the function of the contralateral kidney is compromised.
It is important to recognize that activation of the systemic
renin-angiotensin system is temporary in renovascular hypertension. After a period of time, circulating levels of plasma
renin activity and angiotensin fall despite sustained elevation
of peripheral vascular resistance. This may be the result of both
(1) a slow response to Ang II, through which low levels of angiotensin have pressor actions, and (2) recruitment of additional
mechanisms of vasoconstriction. The latter include activation
of vasoconstrictor lipoxygenase products, oxidative stress, and
endothelin. Additional rise in pressure results from an imbalance
between vasoconstrictors and vasodilators, such as that derived
from decreased bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO). An important role is ascribed to dissociation between systemic blood pressure, extracellular volume, and inappropriate levels of Ang II.33
The complexity of these relationships partly explains the failure of measuring any single pathway to predict blood pressure
responses to renal revascularization.
34
ACCELERATED HYPERTENSION
AND PULMONARY EDEMA
Series of patients referred for renal revascularization in the last
decade have included older patients with more widespread
atherosclerotic disease than ever before.
35,36
This reflects both
improved medical care leading to better blood pressure control and reduced mortality from coronary and cerebrovascular
disease. Patient demographics commonly include more women
than men and a high prevalence of coronary disease, CHF, and
known cerebrovascular disease. In some cases, suspicion
arises regarding RAS because of rapid acceleration of these processes, particularly the rapid rise in arterial pressure in a previously
stable patient. When untreated, a cycle of malignant-phase hypertension and hyponatremia (attributed to the dipsogenic action of
Ang II) may ensue. In other cases, presenting symptoms include
recent progression of hypertension followed by neurological
symptoms of an acute stroke.
Some patients develop cycles of worsening CHF out of proportion to left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. This sometimes
has been designated flash pulmonary edema.
37
Many of these
patients have bilateral disease or stenosis to a solitary functioning kidney. When volume expanded, renal function may improve
slightly at the price of hypertension and circulatory congestion.
Sudden pulmonary edema partly reflects diastolic dysfunction
precipitated by a rapid rise in afterload

in addition to impaired
sodium excretion as a result of renal hypoperfusion. During
volume depletion, serum creatinine commonly rises with evidence of prerenal azotemia. This condition warrants recognition
because several series indicate that cycles of symptomatic exacerbation and hospitalization can be improved with successful
renal revascularization.

vasoconstrictor effect on the efferent arteriole. The importance
of Ang II for preserving GFR is most evident under conditions of

Angiotensin II effects in the kidney include induction of
cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia, and stimulation of hormone
synthesis and ion transport. It also seems to contribute to the
pathogenesis of renal fibrosis by recruiting bone marrow–derived
fibrocytes, circulating cells that contribute to the pathogenesis of
fibrotic diseases.42 Its renal actions are mediated primarily through
AT1 receptors expressed on endothelial, epithelial, and vascular
smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Chronic activation of AT1 receptors in renal ischemic injury may elicit local inflammatory and
fibrogenic responses. Angiotensin II has been implicated in stimulation of vascular smooth muscle and mesangial cell growth, platelet aggregation, generation of superoxide, activation of adhesion
molecules and macrophages, infiltration of inflammatory cells,

Therefore, Ang II is involved in short-term renal adaptive
response to ischemia, but long-term activation of the reninangiotensin system and its interaction with other humoral systems
can lead to progressive destruction of renal tissue.
NITRIC OXIDE
Nitric oxide is synthesized from l-arginine within the kidney by
a family of nitric oxide synthases (NOS) and plays a crucial role
in the regulation of renal hemodynamics and excretory function.
Differential expression, localization, and regulation of three isoforms of NOS expressed in the kidney—neuronal (nNOS), inducible (iNOS), and endothelial (eNOS)—contribute to diverse
intrarenal actions.
46
Consequently, NO reduces vascular tone,
increases sodium excretion, modulates tubuloglomerular feedback, has antithrombotic protection, inhibits growth-related
responses to injury, and modulates the aforementioned renal
actions of Ang II. Nitric oxide further buffers many processes
implicated in the pathogenesis of tissue injury in renovascular
disease, including growth of (VSMCs), mesangial cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia, and synthesis of ECM. However, regulation
of renal blood flow becomes less dependent on eNOS-derived
NO and more dependent on PGs as RAS progresses

The role of NO in renal tissue ischemia is complex, however.

and
generates NO that can be cytotoxic to renal epithelial cells and
contributes to tubular injury, both by decreasing activity of the
eNOS isoform and by formation of the oxidant peroxynitrite.
ENDOTHELINS
The endothelin peptides comprise a family of peptides produced
and released from endothelial cells (ECs), which have potent and
long-lasting vasoconstrictor effects on the renal microcirculation
and modify tubular function. Endothelin release can be stimulated by Ang II, thrombin, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, and
other cytokines (e.g., tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, interleukin
[IL]-1β). Tissue levels of ET-1 are increased in the stenotic kid-

ney,
and in fact in most forms of renal failure, and may persist
for days after resolution of the initial injury. Its involvement in
renal ischemic injury is underscored by the observation that ET-1
blockade is more efficient in improving the early course of postischemic renal injury than inhibition of Ang II.
51
Chronic blockade of the endothelin-A receptor directly inhibits cellular growth
and gene expression, and in ischemic acute renal failure provides
long-term functional and morphological benefits. These effects
are greater than those observed during simultaneous blockade
of both the A and B receptor,
52
likely because of the role of the
latter in eliminating salt, although the endothelin-B receptor has
also been implicated in inflammation and fibrosis in progressive
renal injury.

or Ang II, modulates some of the deleterious effects of Ang II and
ET-1, and contributes to kidney disease. Blockade of TxA2 receptors thus improves urine volume, GFR, and renal plasma flow in
ischemic kidneys and exerts a variety of beneficial effects that
reduce the severity of ischemic damage. Furthermore, vascular
expression of COX-2 is up-regulated in kidneys with arterial steno-

Furthermore, oxidative stress contributes to progressive tissue

damage in the stenotic kidney. In mesangial cells, superoxide promotes hypertrophy and ECM production by both interaction with

NO and by acting as an intracellular signal for growth-related
responses, which may lead to microvascular and tissue remodel-

In addition, ROS are implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemic renal injury by causing lipid peroxidation of cell and organelle
membranes and disrupting the structural integrity and capacity for
cell transport and energy production, especially in the proximal
tubule. Activation of growth factors and cytokines like nuclear factor (NF)-κB

may also play an important role in the mechanism of
action of Ang II and ROS. Studies in humans confirm that oxidative

superoxide production via the membrane NADH/NADPH oxidase system, and xanthine oxidase is an important source of
oxygen free radicals during renal ischemia. Increased oxidative
stress can promote formation of a variety of vasoactive mediators including ET-1, leukotrienes, and prostaglandin F
tanes, endogenous products of lipid peroxidation. In addition, a
chemical reaction between superoxide anion and NO not only
decreases bioavailability of NO but also leads to production of
toxic species (e.g., peroxynitrite [ONOO−]). Functionally, ROS

The fibrogenic factors TGF-β, tissue inhibitor of matrix metallo-
proteinases (TIMP)-1, and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1,
which are up-regulated in stenotic kidneys,

are important medi-

chronic renal injury characterized by increased activity of intrarenal Ang II.

It interacts with endothelin and several growth factors and cytokines in promoting progressive interstitial fibrosis,
primarily via its downstream effectors from the Smad family, but
also participates in postischemic renal healing.
