Abstract
1. A comparison has been made of surgical and medical treatment in patients with arteriosclerotic renal artery stenosis and hypertension. 2. Immediate post-operative blood pressure was often normal, but frequently rose again later. After the sixth year only about 25% of surgical patients were normotensive without drug treatment. 3. Nephrectomy and vascular reconstruction gave similar results. 4. We presently believe that post-operative anticoagulant therapy is indicated in patients undergoing surgery for arteriosclerotic renal artery stenosis.
