Abstract
Percutaneous transluminal dilatation of a left-sided renal-artery stenosis was done in a 61-year-old patient with hypertension. Shortly after dilatation blood-pressure fell to normal and renal plasma flow increased. Dilatation might be an alternative to renal vascular surgery in severe renal hypertension.Entities:
