Sažetak
Renal artery stenosis is a widely discussed and debated topic. Its incidence is 4% in hypertensive population and 10-20% in pts with hypertension and coronary artery disease. Improved imaging methods suggest that RAS is more common than previously thought. The relation of RAS to RVHT will be discussed. Doppler ultrasound, CT angiography and MR angiogaphy are widely used for the detection of RAS. The advantages and disadvantages of each method will be presented. The overview of studies comparing angioplasty/stenting of atherosclerotic RAS with the best medical therapy will be presented
