Renal artery stenosis may be the cause of hypertension and reduced renal function. The aim of surgical treatment is to eliminate or reduce the hypertension and to preserve or improve kidney function. At our hospital the standard surgical procedure is aortorenal bypass. We present the results of this procedure in the treatment of 23 patients (27 bypasses) during a five-year period. During the same periode nine patients were treated with percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty. Arterial reconstruction of the renal artery is a relatively simple and cost-effective treatment. Furthermore, the rate of postoperative complications is low.
