title: [Isolated dissection of the renal artery treated by conservative surgery in 3 patients].
abstract: We reported 3 cases of male patients with isolated dissecting aneurysm of the renal artery. The clinical presentation included lumbar pain followed by hypertension (malignant in 2 cases) in the next 3 months. These three patients have underwent surgical renal artery repair. At maximal follow-up (4, 5, 11 years after surgery), the blood pressure was normalized in these 3 patients (with one antihypertensive drug in 2) and the renal function remained stable.
