Traumatic renal artery occlusion: is late reconstruction advisable? 1987

S Weimann, and G Flora, and P Dittrich, and G Mikuz, and G Bartsch

We report a case of traumatic renal artery occlusion treated successfully by reconstruction several years after the injury. Hypertension resulted in diagnostic investigation by means of excretory urography, computerized tomography, angiography and perfusion scintigraphy. Treatment consisted of a thin-walled polytetrafluoroethylene (Gore-Tex) bypass between the aorta and left renal artery near the hilus. When the patient was discharged from the hospital the creatinine level was normal and blood pressure was 180/90.
