How Percutaneous Renal Angioplasty ± Stenting is performed
This surgery is performed in the catheterization lab under image guidance, with options for balloon angioplasty alone or stent placement depending on lesion stability. It typically involves percutaneous puncture of a peripheral artery, insertion of a guidewire and catheter, and angiography to assess the stenotic segment of the renal artery before angioplasty. Pressure measurements or fractional flow reserve (FFR) may be used to aid in decision-making. Postoperative monitoring includes the puncture site, blood pressure, urine output, and renal function, with the goal of improving renal perfusion and stabilizing blood pressure. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
