The ability of diagnostic intravenous digital subtraction angiography (IVDSA) to demonstrate the degree of renal artery stenosis was compared with that of intraarterial angiography in 45 patients with 92 arteries. Stenotic lesions on both IVDSA and intraarterial studies were classified as normal (0% stenosis), minor (less than 50%), low grade (50%-80%), and high grade (80%-99%). There was agreement about the degree of stenosis in 90% of the cases. IVDSA grading was correct in 94% of atheromatous lesions and in 56% of the fibromuscular dysplastic lesions. In the high-grade atheromatous lesions, the degree of stenosis was slightly overestimated on IVDSA studies in 22.5% of the cases. In fibromuscular dysplasia, stenosis was underestimated in 33% of the cases. |
