title: Balloon catheter dilatation of renal artery stenosis in the dog. A preliminary report.
abstract: Renal artery stenosis was successfully created in 2 out 3 dogs using a nonsurgical, percutaneous and intra-arterial technique. In both instances, it was possible to reduce the stenosis by dilatation with a balloon catheter. The possible clinical implications of this technique are briefly discussed.
