| Popis: | The aim of this study was to evaluate renal function changes after percutaneous transluminal renal artery angioplasty (PTRA) done to treat atheromatous renal artery stenosis with renal failure. Between 1990 and 1995, PTRA was performed in 99 renal failure patients (creatinine clearance less than 80 ml/min) with atheromatous stenosis of one or more native renal arteries. Indications for PTRA were chronic renal failure with poorly controlled hypertension (group A, 67 patients) or rapidly deteriorating renal function (group B, 32 patients). Renal function changes after PTRA were evaluated based on the percentages of patients with improved, stabilized, and worsened serum creatinine and creatinine clearance values, and on mean differences between final and baseline creatinine clearances. At the end of follow-up (19+/-10 months), group A had a significantly smaller creatinine clearance gain (42.9 ml/min before PTA to 44.5 ml/min after PTA, D=1.6 ml/min, in group A, vs 24.1-28.4 ml/min, D=4.3, in group B, p=0.03), and a significantly smaller percentage of improved patients (36 vs 62%) than group B. Most stenoses in group B either were bilateral or occurred on a solitary kidney ( p=0.001). Percutaneous transluminal renal artery angioplasty combined with aggressive medical treatment may be useful in maintaining or improving renal function, particularly in patients with a recent, sharp deterioration in renal function. |
