  • Title: The angiographic incidence of renal artery stenosis in the arteriosclerotic population.
    Author: Wilms G, Marchal G, Peene P, Baert AL.
    Journal: Eur J Radiol; 1990; 10(3):195-7. PubMed ID: 2357995.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of renal artery stenosis was evaluated with intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography in 100 consecutive patients referred for peripheral arteriopathy. Fifty-seven patients were normotensive, 43 were hypertensive. In the normotensive group, renal artery stenosis was found in ten patients (17.5%). In the hypertensive group renal artery stenosis was found in twelve patients (28%). It is concluded that the incidence of renal artery stenosis is high in an arteriosclerotic population both in normotensive and hypertensive patients.
