Coronary subclavian steal and impaired flow through the graft are the two mechanisms implied. We report 2 patients with mammary artery grafts in whom reappraisal of anginal symptoms was related to the presence of proximal subclavian stenoses located just before the origin of ...

ABSTRACT Renal artery stenosis is one of the treatable causes of systemic hypertension in children. For years surgery was the treatment of choice, but recently PTRA (Percutaneous Transluminal Renal Angioplasty) has been successfully performed for relief of the stenosis.
