    Author: Muroya T, Koga S, Maemura K.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2013 Feb; 81(3):574-7. PubMed ID: 22511619.
    Abstract:
    Treatment options for chronic renal artery dissection, which is a rare cause of renal artery stenosis and renovascular hypertension, such as medical management, percutaneous intervention, and open surgical repair remain controversial. We describe a 55-year-old man with a chronic dissecting aneurysm of a renal artery complicated with renovascular hypertension that was initially diagnosed by computed tomography angiography, evaluated by intravascular ultrasound, and treated by stent implantation with coil embolization.© 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
