The effect of renal artery angioplasty on blood pressure in patients with true resistant hypertension and atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis has not been fully investigated due to the exclusion of these patients from most trials. In this study, we assessed the benefits of renal angioplasty on daytime ambulatory blood pressure (dABP) in this subgroup of patients. Medical records of our hypertension department were retrospectively analyzed from 2000 to 2016. Seventy-two patients were identified with resistant hypertension (dABP >135 or 85 mm Hg despite at least 3 antihypertensive drugs, including a diuretic) and atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis treated by angioplasty. Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis was unilateral in 57 patients and bilateral in 15 patients. The mean age of the patients was 67.8 +/- 11.2 years; dABP was 157 +/- 16/82 +/- 10 mm Hg despite 4.0 +/- 1.0 antihypertensive treatments; estimated glomerular filtration rate was 52 (41-63) mL/min. After renal angioplasty, dABPM decreased by 14.0 +/- 17.3/6.4 +/- 8.7 mm Hg (P
