  • Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) remains the leading cause of several renovascular diseases such as Chronic Kidney Disease. ARAS causes hypertension, loss of renal function, and cardiovascular complications.
  • Treatment by means of percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting (PTRAS) is disappointing in preserving renal function and preventing cardiovascular events.
  • Microvascular remodeling (rarefaction) is an important pathologic alteration in the stenotic kidney.
