Segmental arterial mediolysis (SAM) is a rare condition caused by loss of muscular elements in the walls of medium-sized, usually visceral, arteries. This causes dissection, occlusion, aneurysm formation, and rupture. The clinical presentation is usually catastrophic as a result of vascular occlusion or rupture. Herein an unusual case of renovascular hypertension resulting from SAM is reported, which was successfully treated with balloon angioplasty.
节段性动脉中层溶解(SAM)是一种罕见疾病,由中-sized动脉(通常为内脏动脉)壁中肌肉成分缺失引起。这会导致夹层形成、闭塞、动脉瘤形成和破裂。由于血管闭塞或破裂,临床表现通常很严重。本文报告了一例由SAM导致的肾血管性高血压的罕见病例,该病例通过球囊血管成形术成功治疗。
