Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of renal artery stenosis is an attractive alternative to surgical therapy. However, even with endovascular stenting, the overall rate of restenosis is 21%. While brachytherapy for coronary in-stent restenosis has proven efficacy, its use for renal artery in-stent restenosis has not been formally evaluated. We report a case of bilateral in-stent renal artery restenosis treated with endovascular brachytherapy.
经皮腔内肾动脉血管成形术是手术治疗的一种有吸引力的替代方法。然而，即使采用血管内支架置入术，再狭窄的总体发生率仍为21%。虽然近距离放射疗法治疗冠状动脉支架内再狭窄已被证明有效，但其用于肾动脉支架内再狭窄尚未得到正式评估。我们报告一例采用血管内近距离放射疗法治疗的双侧肾动脉支架内再狭窄病例。
