Abstract

We report a case of a 77 year old woman with history of renovascular hypertension because of stenosis of right renal artery which has an acute renal failure. After abdominal Doppler-ultrasounds and abdominal CT with contrast, a bilateral stenosis of renal artery was demonstrated, with acute occlusion of left artery.
