Core Tip |
Renal failure requiring dialysis support is a rare complication of renal artery stenosis due to fib-romuscular dysplasia. We present a 25-year-old woman with fibromuscular dysplasia who developed dialysis dependence following acute loss of kidney function after suspected renal arterial dissection. Surgical revascularization resulted in dialysis cessation and improved blood pressure control. This case illustrates that in well-selected dialysis-dependent patients with renal artery stenosis secondary to fibromuscular dysplasia, surgical revascularization may not only improve the control of blood pressure but also restore enough kidney function for dialysis cessation. |
