Renal Artery Stenosis
6.1 Guidelines
6.1.1 American College ofCardiology Foundation/American
Heart Association
Renal artery disease guideline recommendations of the American Heart Association [1] are:
Clinical Clues to the Diagnosis of Renal Artery Stenosis (Class I
recommendations)
1. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant renal
artery stenosis (RAS) is indicated in patients with the onset of hypertension before the age of 30years. (Level of Evidence: B).
2. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant RAS is
indicated in patients with the onset of severe hypertension after the age of 55years. (Level of Evidence: B).
3. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant RAS is
indicated in patients with the following characteristics: (a) accelerated hyperten­sion (sudden and persistent worsening of previously controlled hypertension); (b) resistant hypertension (dened as the failure to achieve goal blood pressure in patients who are adhering to full doses of an appropriate 3-drug regimen that includes a diuretic); or (c) malignant hypertension (hypertension with coexistent evidence of acute end-organ damage, ie, acute renal failure, acutely decompen­sated congestive heart failure, new visual or neurological disturbance, and/or advanced [grade III to IV] retinopathy). (Level of Evidence: C).
4. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant RAS is
indicated in patients with new azotemia or worsening renal function after the administration of an ACE inhibitor or an angiotensin receptor blocking agent. (Level of Evidence: B).

6 Renal Artery Stenosis
5. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant RAS is
indicated in patients with an unexplained atrophic kidney or a discrepancy in size between the 2 kidneys of greater than 1.5cm. (Level of Evidence: B).
6. The performance of diagnostic studies to identify clinically signicant RAS is
indicated in patients with sudden, unexplained pulmonary edema (especially in azotemic patients). (Level of Evidence: B).
Diagnostic Methods (Class I recommendations)
1. Duplex ultrasonography is recommended as a screening test to establish the
diagnosis of RAS. (Level of Evidence: B).
2. CTA (in individuals with normal renal function) is recommended as a screening
test to establish the diagnosis of RAS. (Level of Evidence: B).
3. MRA is recommended as a screening test to establish the diagnosis of RAS. (Level
of Evidence: B).
Indications for Revascularization (Class IIb recommendations)
Asymptomatic stenosis
1. Percutaneous revascularization may be considered for treatment of an asymp-
tomatic bilateral or solitary viable kidney with a hemodynamically signicant RAS. (Level of Evidence: C).
2. The usefulness of percutaneous revascularization of an asymptomatic unilateral
hemodynamically signicant RAS in a viable kidney is not well established and is presently clinically unproven. (Level of Evidence: C).
Hypertension (Class IIa recommendation)
1. Percutaneous revascularization is reasonable for patients with hemodynamically
signicant RAS and accelerated hypertension, resistant hypertension, malignant hypertension, hypertension with an unexplained unilateral small kidney, and hypertension with intolerance to medication. (Level of Evidence: B).
Preservation of Renal Function
1. Percutaneous revascularization is reasonable for patients with RAS and progres-
sive chronic kidney disease with bilateral RAS or a RAS to a solitary functioning kidney. (Class IIa/Level of Evidence: B).
2. Percutaneous revascularization may be considered for patients with RAS and
chronic renal insufciency with unilateral RAS. (Class IIb/Level of Evidence: C).
Impact of RAS on Congestive Heart Failure and Unstable Angina
1. Percutaneous revascularization is indicated for patients with hemodynamically
signicant RAS and recurrent, unexplained congestive heart failure or sudden, unexplained pulmonary edema. (Class I/Level of Evidence: B).
2. Percutaneous revascularization is reasonable for patients with hemodynamically
signicant RAS and unstable angina. (Class IIa/Level of Evidence: B).
Endovascular treatment for RAS (Class I recommendations)
6.1 Guidelines
https://t.me/medicina_free
1. Renal stent placement is indicated for ostial atherosclerotic RAS lesions that
meet the clinical criteria for intervention. (Level of Evidence: B).
2. Balloon angioplasty with bailout stent placement if necessary is recommended
for bromuscular dysplasia lesions. (Level of Evidence: B).
Surgery for RAS (Class I recommendations)
1. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with bromuscular dys-
plastic RAS with clinical indications for interventions (same as for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty), especially those exhibiting complex disease that extends into the segmental arteries and those having macroaneurysms. (Level of Evidence: B).
2. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with atherosclerotic
RAS and clinical indications for intervention, especially those with multiple small renal arteries or early primary branching of the main renal artery. (Level of Evidence: B).
3. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with atherosclerotic
RAS in combination with pararenal aortic reconstructions (in treatment of aortic aneurysms or severe aortoiliac occlusive disease). (Level of Evidence: C).
163
6.1.2 European Society ofCardiology (ESC) andEuropean
Society forVascular Surgery (ESVS)
The ESC and ESVS guidelines [2] consider renal artery disease (RAD) when renal artery stenosis (RAS) is ≥60%, although additional functional assessment by hae­modynamic criteria is advisable.
6.1.2.1 Clinical Situations Raising Suspicion forRenal Artery Disease
• Onset of hypertension before the age of 30years.
• Onset of severe hypertension after the age of 55years, when associated with
chronic kidney disease or heart failure.
• Hypertension and abdominal bruit.
• Rapid and persistent worsening of previously controlled hypertension.
• Resistant hypertension (i.e. other secondary form unlikely and target not achieved
despite four drug classes including a diuretic and mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist in appropriate doses).
• Hypertensive crisis (i.e. acute renal failure, acute heart failure, hypertensive
encephalopathy, or grade 3 to 4 retinopathy).
• New azotemia or worsening of renal function after treatment with renin-
angiotensin- aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers.
164
https://t.me/medicina_free
6 Renal Artery Stenosis
• Unexplained atrophic kidney or discrepancy in kidney size, or unexplained renal
failure.
• Flash pulmonary oedema.
6.1.2.2 Diagnostic Strategies
• Duplex ultrasound (as rst-line), CTA and MRA are recommended imaging
modalities to establish a diagnosis of RAD. (Class I recommendation/Evidence level B).
• DSA may be considered to conrm a diagnosis of RAD when clinical suspicion
is high and the results of non-invasive examinations are inconclusive. (Class IIb recommendation/Level of evidence C).
• Renal scintigraphy, plasma renin measurements before and after angiotensin-
converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) provocation and vein renin measurements are not recommended for screening of atherosclerotic RAD. (Class III recom­mendation/Evidence level C).
6.1.2.3 Recommendations forTreatment Strategies forRenal
Artery Disease
Medical therapy
• ACEIs/ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers) are recommended for treatment of
hypertension associated with unilateral RAS. (Class I recommendation/Evidence level B).
• Calcium channel blockers, beta-blockers and diuretics are recommended for
treatment of hypertension associated with renal artery disease. (Class I recom­mendation/Level of evidence C).
• ACEIs/ARBs may be considered in bilateral severe RAS and in the case of ste-
nosis in a single functioning kidney, if well-tolerated and under close monitor­ing. (Class IIb recommendation/Level of evidence B).
Revascularisation
• Routine revascularisation is not recommended in RAS secondary to atheroscle-
rosis. (Class III recommendation/Level of evidence A).
• In cases of hypertension and/or signs of renal impairment related to renal arterial
bromuscular dysplasia, balloon angioplasty with bailout stenting should be considered. (Class IIa recommendation/Level of evidence B).
• Balloon angioplasty, with or without stenting, may be considered in selected
patients with RAS and unexplained recurrent congestive heart failure or sudden pulmonary oedema. (Class IIb recommendation/Level of evidence C).
• In the case of an indication for revascularisation, surgical revascularisation
should be considered for patients with complex anatomy of the renal arteries,
6.1 Guidelines

after a failed endovascular procedure or during open aortic surgery. (Class IIa recommendation/Level of evidence B).
165
6.1.3 Society forCardiovascular Angiography
andInterventions (SCAI)
6.1.3.1 Clinical Scenarios inWhich Treatment ofSignicant RAS May
BeConsidered [3]
Appropriate care:
• Cardiac disturbance syndromes (ash pulmonary oedema or acute coronary syn-
drome with severe hypertension).
• Resistant hypertension (uncontrolled hypertension with failure of maximally tol-
erated doses of at least 3 antihypertensive agents, one of which is a diuretic, or intolerance to medications).
• Ischaemic nephropathy with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with estimated
GFR<45ml/min and global renal ischaemia (unilateral signicant RAS with a solitary kidney or bilateral signicant RAS) without other explanation.
May be appropriate care:
• Unilateral RAS with CKD (eGFR <45ml/min).
• Unilateral RAS with prior episodes of congestive heart failure (stage C).
• Anatomically challenging or high-risk lesions (early bifurcation, small vessel,
severe concentric calcication, and severe aortic atheroma or mural thrombus).
Rarely appropriate care:
• Unilateral, solitary or bilateral RAS with controlled blood pressure and normal
renal function.
• Unilateral, solitary or bilateral RAS with kidney size <7cm in pole-to-pole length.
• Unilateral, solitary or bilateral RAS with chronic end-stage renal disease on
hemodialysis >3months.
• Unilateral, solitary or bilateral renal artery chronic total occlusion.
(Note: signicant RAS is an angiographically moderate lesion (50–70%) with phys­iologic conrmation of severity or a>70% stenosis).
6.1.4 Fibromuscular Dysplasia- Statement fromtheAHA
A scientic statement from the American Heart Association [4] species the follow­ing indications for renal arterial revascularization in patients with renal artery bro­muscular dysplasia (FMD):
166
https://t.me/medicina_free
1. Resistant hypertension (failure to reach goal blood pressures in patients on an
appropriate 3-drug regimen including a diuretic).
2. Hypertension of short duration with the goal of a cure of hypertension.
3. Renal artery dissection; rarely is intervention needed, but if so, stenting is gener-
ally the procedure of choice.
4. Renal artery aneurysm(s); surgical resection, endovascular coiling, or placement
of a covered stent is usually used.
5. Branch renal artery disease and hypertension; some lesions can be treated with
PTA, but if this is not possible, surgical revascularization may be required, often with bench repair.
6. Preservation of renal function in the patient with severe stenosis, especially in
the pediatric population with perimedial broplasia or intimal broplasia.
Randomized, controlled trials of revascularization versus medical therapy in patients with renal artery FMD have not been performed. The negative trials on stent implan­tation for atherosclerotic renal artery disease do not apply to patients with FMD given the differing pathophysiology and natural history of these 2 vascular disor­ders. The natural history of medial broplasia is generally benign.
PTA of the renal artery is the procedure of choice for patients with renal artery FMD and hypertension in the appropriate clinical setting. The typical FMD patient with multifocal disease of the main renal artery is rst offered PTA. There are patients, however, in whom the expected outcome from surgery may be better than that expected with PTA. Examples include patients with small renal arteries (<4mm), branch disease, especially when associated with aneurysms, or extensive intimal or perimedial broplasia. Secondary surgical repair after failed PTA should be considered early in the decision process before chronic ischemia leads to loss of cortical thickness.

6.2 Results
6.2.1 Endovascular Intervention
6.2.1.1 Systematic Reviews/Meta-Analyses
A Cochrane Review compared the effectiveness of balloon angioplasty (with and without stenting) with medical therapy for the treatment of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis in patients with hypertension [5]. Eight randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing balloon angioplasty with medical therapy in 2222 hypertensive patients with haemodynamically signicant renal artery stenosis (greater than 50% reduction in luminal diameter) and with a minimum follow-up of 6 months were included. The available data were insufcient to conclude that revascularisation in the form of balloon angioplasty, with or without stenting, is superior to medical therapy for the treatment of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis in patients with
