Atherosclerosis of the Renal Artery as a Morphological Cause Сhronic Kidney Disease

Abstract

The paper presents the result of successful staged surgical treatment of a patient with ischemic kidney disease caused by atherosclerotic lesions of the renal arteries. Clinically, the patient had signs of ischemic kidney disease in the form of severe azotemia, arterial hypertension. The postoperative period was uneventful. Currently, there has been no progression of azotemia , there are no indications for renal replacement therapy, blood pressure has been stabilized at target values. This clinical observation shows the need for a thorough examination of patients with azotemia and hypertension for the presence of renal artery stenosis.
