Does bilateral renal denervation reduce arterial blood pressure in a patient with severe essential hypertension?
Bilateral renal denervation did not lower arterial blood pressure in a patient with severe essential hypertension, suggesting nervous impulses from the kidneys do not maintain the hypertension.
Page et al. (1935) conducted a case report in Essential hypertension (n=1). Bilateral renal denervation vs. Baseline (pre-operative state) was evaluated on Level of arterial blood pressure and renal function. Bilateral renal denervation in a patient with severe essential hypertension did not significantly change the level of arterial blood pressure or renal function.
