Q

What is the gold standard for diagnosing Renovascular disease? What test is actually performed in practice?

A
  • Gold standard= Renal arteriography
  • What you actually do= CT angio

**only test if intervention will be completed if a significant stenotic lesion is found**

Q

What is the medical management of fibromuscular dysplasia? What testing do you follow up with?

A
  • ACE or ARB
  • f/u w/ serum creatinine q 6 months and duplex U/S q 6-12 mo
17
Q

What is surical management of fibromuscular dysplasia?

A
  • Better success with angioplasty than RAS
18
Q

What do you do after surgical managment of fibromuscular dysplasia?

A

Duplex u/s and serum creatinine at first post-op visit then q 6 months x 2 years then annually

19
Q

What are the 2 management options of fibromuscular dysplasia?

A
  • Medical management: ACE or ARB
  • Surgical: Better success w/ angioplasty than RAS
20
Q

What should you consider when giving an ACE/ARB for medical management of Renovascular disease?

A
  • Renal perfusion decreased due to stenosis
  • Autoregulation maintains GFR
  • Medical blockade of angiotensin II formation blunts the effect of autoregulation—> reduced GFR—> possible AKI (hemodynamically induced)
21
Q

What are 4 complications of surgicial treatment of renovascular disease?

A
  • Renal artery dissection
  • Capsular perforation
  • Hemorrhage
  • Atheroembolic disease – accelerates HTN and kidney failure
22
Q

What 4 situations are most likely to benefit from surgical treatment of renovascular disease?

A
  • Short duration of BP elevation prior to dx
  • Failure of med therapy to control BP
  • Intolerance to medical therapy
  • Recurrent flash pulmonary edema and/or refractory heart failure
23
Q

Fibromuscular dysplasia results in reduced blood flow to kidney and usually involves what 2 parts of the kidney?

A

Usually involves distal main renal artery or intrarenal branches
