Abstract

It is possible to establish a correlation between the different forms of fibrodysplasia of the renal arteries defined by their histological appearances and the epidemiology, arteriography and course of these diseases. Aneurysm and dissection leading to thrombosis, the possibility of multiple arterial localisations and malignant hypertension are the prognostic risks of this disease. Two particular problems are dealt with: renal artery stenosis in the child and dysplasia of renal arteries of transplanted kidneys. These data form a partial basis for diagnosis and therapeutic indications.
