What are the risks?

Semplicity HTN-1 Trial Short-term safety outcomes Renal artery dissection before energy delivery (n 1) Femoral artery pseudoaneurysm at access site (n 3) Long-term safety outcomes No renal vascular complication Semplicity HTN-2 Trial Short-term safety outcomes Intraprocedural bradicardia (n 7) Post procedural drop in BP (n 1) Femoral artery pseudoaneurysm at access site (n 1) Long-term safety outcomes No renal vascular complication

After 5 months, due to recurrent hypertension, renal angiography was performed demonstrating an 80% ostial and 70% mid-segment right main renal artery stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the right upper pole accessory renal artery Kaltenbach B. et al.: JACC 2012 After six months increse of BP. Renal Angiography showed a 75% stenosis near the ostium of the right renal artery Lancet 2012

Limitations RDN does not cause universal BP lowering Only a small number of patients have been exposed to RDN and the follow-up is short Lacking of randomized blinded studies Lacking of any procedural marker that might identify good responders to RDN Lacking of standardized certification of RDN centers
