We present the case of a 46-year-old man with bilateral renal artery stenosis and a previous stent placed on the left renal artery who presented with a hypertensive emergency with flash pulmonary edema and acute-on-chronic renal failure. A renal angiogram revealed extensive thrombosis and in-stent restenosis, which were treated with thrombectomy, angioplasty, and stenting. Our case highlights the importance of careful patient selection for renal artery stenting and close monitoring post-stenting due to the risk of serious complications.
我们报告了一例46岁男性患者,患有双侧肾动脉狭窄,此前左肾动脉已置入支架,此次因高血压急症伴急性肺水肿和慢性肾功能衰竭急性发作入院。肾血管造影显示广泛血栓形成和支架内再狭窄,遂行血栓切除术、血管成形术和支架置入术进行治疗。我们的病例强调了肾动脉支架置入术患者谨慎选择的重要性,以及由于存在严重并发症风险,术后需密切监测。
