Renal artery stenosis is an important clinical entity. its
importance lies in that it may be a treatable cause of
hypertension, and it is -when progress- a cause of chronic
renal failure. The causes of renal artery stenosis are
numerous, the most
common are: atherosclerosis and
fibromuscular dysplasia (accounts for more than 95% of
cases). Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) is the standard
reference in the radiologic diagnosis of renal artery stenosis,
but it carries the risk of being invasive procedure. Doppler
ultrasound is used in the evaluation of the renal arteries, and
it has the advantage of being non-invasive and inexpensive.
