In this study 12 patients with drug-resistant hypertension after renal transplantation had their own kidneys ablated by therapeutic embolisation. The technical aspects of the procedure are described in detail. An improvement in blood-pressure control was achieved in eight of the 12 patients. These results are similar to those which have been reported after bilateral nephrectomy. It is concluded that embolisation of the host kidneys is a simple, effective and less hazardous alternative to surgery in the treatment of severe hypertension after renal transplantation.
