<bold>Figure 34.11 A.</bold> This patient has both atherosclerotic ostial stenosis and fibromuscular dysplasia. The typical appearance of fibromuscular dysplasia <italic>(arrow)</bold> is a corrugation of the vessel. This is diagnostic of fibromuscular dysplasia, but not of renovascular hypertension. <bold>B.</bold> The corrugated appearance of the vessel does not change after balloon angioplasty; however, the ostial lesion has been successfully stented. Stenting of the fibromuscular disease is reserved for pe...
