Overview
Revascularization by surgical intervention or percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) , are not the first-line treatment options for patients with FMD, however in cases of FMD-related RAS with signs of downstream reduction of renal function or in case of drug-resistant HTN vascular reconstruction should be considered.
Indications
there are no evidence-based guidelines and randomized, controlled trials comparing revascularization and medical therapy in patients with FMD; but surgery is usually reserved for patients with either:[1]
- HTN of recent onset with the goal of cure
- drug resistance or intolerance
- renal artery dissection
- Renal artery aneurysm
- preservation of renal function or prevent renal size reduction
