Overview

Vascular surgical reconstruction is reserved for a minority of cases. Similar to all surgeries, vascular surgical reconstruction is associated with complications. The need for reoperation is documented in 5-15% of all RAS patients who require surgical intervention.

Surgery

Vascular surgical reconstruction is reserved for a minority of cases. Similar to all surgeries, vascular surgical reconstruction is associated with complications. The need for reoperation is documented in 5-15% of all RAS patients who require surgical intervention.[1][2][3][4][5]

Indications

Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated in specific cases of atherosclerotic RAS[1][2][3][4][5]:

  • Involvement of multiple small arteries
  • Involvement of early primary branching of the main renal artery
  • Renal artery reconstruction during pararenal aortic reconstruction in cases such as aortic aneurysms or aortoiliac occlusive disease

Risk Factors

It is important to note that vascular surgical reconstruction of the renal arteries may be complicated by associated risks. The risk of complications increases in the following conditions[1][2][3][4][5]:

  • Concomitant aortic reconstruction
  • Renal insufficiency
  • Use of aortic grafts as bypass graft

Class I
"1. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with fibromuscular dysplastic RAS with clinical indications for interventions (same as for PTA), especially those exhibiting complex disease that extends into the segmental arteries and those having macroaneurysms. (Level of Evidence: B)"
"2. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with atherosclerotic RAS and clinical indications for intervention, especially those with multiple small renal arteries or early primary branching of the main renal artery. (Level of Evidence: B)"
"3. Vascular surgical reconstruction is indicated for patients with atherosclerotic RAS in combination with pararenal aortic reconstructions (in treatment of aortic aneurysms or severe aortoiliac occlusive disease). (Level of Evidence: C)"
