  • Title: Successful delayed bilateral renal revascularization during active phase of Takayasu's arteritis.
    Author: Dardik A, Ballermann BJ, Williams GM.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 1998 Mar; 27(3):552-4. PubMed ID: 9546244.
    Abstract:
    Successful bilateral renal revascularization was performed 24 days after the development of angiotensin converting enzyme-inhibitor-induced bilateral renal artery thrombosis and anuric acute renal failure in a patient with Takayasu's arteritis. Excellent results were obtained after an unusually long ischemic time for a patient with active-phase disease. The outcome suggests that aggressive surgical revascularization can benefit patients with renal failure caused by renal arterial occlusion during the active phase of Takayasu's arteritis.
