Other congenital malformations of renal artery - what does this mean
Other congenital malformations of renal artery occur when the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys are abnormally formed or positioned. this can lead to decreased blood flow to the kidneys, resulting in an increased risk of high blood pressure, kidney damage, and other health complications.
What happens during the disease - other congenital malformations of renal artery
The pathogenesis of other congenital malformations of renal artery is not well understood. it is believed to be caused by abnormal development of the renal artery during embryonic development. it is possible that genetic or environmental factors can lead to the abnormal development of the renal artery, leading to the formation of malformations.
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of the treatment: To improve the blood flow to the kidneys and reduce the risk of complications.
- Administer medications to reduce hypertension
- Undergo angioplasty to open or widen blocked renal arteries
- Perform a stent placement to keep the renal artery open
- Undergo a renal artery bypass surgery
- Undergo embolization to block the blood flow to the affected renal artery
- Receive lifestyle counseling and guidance to reduce the risk of hypertension
- Undergo periodic imaging tests to monitor the condition of the renal artery
8 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Other congenital malformations of renal artery - Prevention
The best way to prevent other congenital malformations of renal artery is to ensure that pregnant women receive adequate pre-natal care, including regular ultrasounds. these ultrasounds can detect any abnormalities in the development of the renal artery, allowing for early intervention and treatment. additionally, pregnant women should ensure they are receiving adequate nutrition and avoiding any substances that could be harmful to the fetus.
