ABSTRACT
A 48-year old male patient visited our hospital with uncontrolled hypertension and pain of the left leg. CT angiography shows atherosclerotic occlusion of both renal artery orifices and the left common iliac artery. Despite of medical treatment for 2 months, the clinical condition of the patient worsened. We performed the surgical revascularization with both renal arteries and aorto-left femoral artery bypass with using an 8 mm artificial vascular graft. He lived well without hypertension with using only angiotensin receptor blocker and an anticoagulant for 10 postoperative months. Using surgical revascularization for renovascular hypertension has decreased due to the development of intervention technology and medication, but this surgery is indicated in cases of renovascular hypertension with extensive atherosclerotic lesions. We report here on a case of surgical revacularization for medically intractable atherosclerotic renovascular hypertension together with left common iliac artery occlusion.
