Abstract |
Renal artery stenosis is a rare cause of acute pulmonary edema. So-called flash pulmonary edema
is associated with bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis in a single functioning kidney. Flash
pulmonary edema has been recognized as an absolute indication for vascular intervention. A 33-year
old man was admitted with acute shortness of breath. Renal angiography showed occlusion of the
right renal artery. He underwent a right renal artery bypass graft. However, after the renal artery
bypass graft, episodes of pulmonary edema recurred. A renal angiography showed complete
obstruction of the right renal artery and bypass graft. The left renal angiography showed an intact
renal artery and decreased kidney size.(Korean J Med 71:322-327, 2006)
Key Words : Pulmonary edema, Renal artery occlusion |
