The Authors report their experience about fifty patients affected with renovascular hypertension, treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for stenosis of main renal artery and now studied by Duplex-Scan and Color-doppler. Results, compared with arterial pressure measurements, renography and laboratory renal function evaluation, showed a sensibility of 84%, specificity of 90% and an accuracy of 87.5%. Advantages and limits of Duplex-scan in patients treated by PTA are briefly discussed.

Abstract

The Authors report their experience about fifty patients affected with renovascular hypertension, treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for stenosis of main renal artery and now studied by Duplex-Scan and Color-doppler. Results, compared with arterial pressure measurements, renography and laboratory renal function evaluation, showed a sensibility of 84%, specificity of 90% and an accuracy of 87.5%. Advantages and limits of Duplex-scan in patients treated by PTA are briefly discussed.
