Congenital renal artery stenosis - what does this mean
Congenital renal artery stenosis is a condition in which the renal arteries, which are the arteries that bring blood to the kidneys, are abnormally narrow or blocked. this can be caused by an abnormality in the development of the renal arteries in the womb or by an obstruction in the artery, such as a clot or tumor. this can lead to decreased blood flow to the kidneys, resulting in high blood pressure and decreased kidney function.
What happens during the disease - congenital renal artery stenosis
Congenital renal artery stenosis is a condition caused by abnormal narrowing of the renal artery, which is the main blood vessel that supplies blood to the kidneys. this narrowing is caused by a malformation of the artery during fetal development, which can lead to decreased blood flow and decreased kidney function. in some cases, the condition can be asymptomatic, but if left untreated, it can lead to hypertension, kidney failure, and even stroke.
