Abstract:
: Catheter-based renal artery denervation has been successfully introduced as alternative treatment for patients suffering from drug-resistant essential hypertension. However, the local morphological changes within the vessel wall accompanying this technique remain elusive and we sought to characterize these by utilizing the simplicity radiofrequency catheter approach.: Following treatment of seven pigs, renal arteries were assigned to either the acute (n = 6), subacute (10-day follow-up, n = 6)...     »
