At Radiance Clinic, Thane, Dr. Ashish Sarode, a board-certified vascular and interventional radiologist, specializes in renal artery stenting, a minimally invasive procedure used to treat renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys). This procedure helps restore healthy blood flow to the kidneys, improving their function and reducing the risk of complications such as high blood pressure and kidney failure.
Renal artery stenosis is often caused by atherosclerosis (plaque buildup in the arteries) and can lead to a decrease in kidney function over time. In the renal artery stenting procedure, a small balloon is used to open the narrowed artery, and a stent (a small mesh tube) is placed to keep the artery open. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, with a short recovery time.
By restoring normal blood flow to the kidneys, renal artery stenting can help improve kidney function, lower blood pressure, and prevent further complications.
