Abstract
in English, Russian

In this paper, we present a case of kidney injury as a complication of renal artery angioplasty in a 54-year-old female patient that suffered from resistant renovascular hypertension. This case emphasises the unpredictable nature of endovascular procedures, the need for careful post-procedure evaluation and the role of 'old fashioned' surgical techniques in resolving complications of endovascular procedures.

Приводится клинический случай диагностики и лечения повреждения почки как осложнения после ангиопластики почечной артерии у 54-летней пациентки с резистентной вазоренальной гипертензией. Подчеркнута потенциальная непредсказуемость результата эндоваскулярных вмешательств, необходимость тщательного послеоперационного наблюдения и роль 'устаревших' хирургических методов (нефрэктомия) в устранении некоторых осложнений, возникающих при эндоваскулярных вмешательствах.
