Treatment of hypertension through renal blood vessel denervation at Top Ihilov is performed by experienced surgeons using modern techniques. Positive dynamics after the surgical intervention were observed in 99% of patients: they were able to discontinue antihypertensive medications.
Indications for Surgical Intervention
Blood pressure is determined by two indicators: systolic blood pressure, i.e., the maximum pressure in the arteries at the moment of contraction of the heart muscle, and diastolic – the minimum pressure in the arteries at the moment of relaxation of the myocardium. Resistant arterial hypertension is defined as a condition where the pressure does not drop below 140/90 mm Hg after taking three different antihypertensive medications, one of which is a diuretic.
Thus, the indications for surgery are:
- resistant arterial hypertension;
- type II diabetes mellitus.
Performing such a procedure in type II diabetes mellitus helps stabilize glucose metabolism in the body and reduce insulin resistance.
Technique of Renal Blood Vessel Denervation
The cause of excessive blood pressure may be increased activation of the sympathetic nervous system nerves. With its participation, signals are transmitted between the organs involved in regulating pressure: the brain, kidneys, heart, and blood vessels. The brain receives incorrect signals from the nerve endings of the sympathetic nervous system about the level of pressure in the kidneys, i.e., perceives it as lower than it actually is. It then commands to raise the pressure. Renal blood vessel denervation in Israel involves interrupting the nerve connections between the kidneys and the brain that lead to distorted information. During the operation, the surgeon makes an incision, accessing the renal artery, where a balloon for radiofrequency ablation is introduced. The doctor applies a radiofrequency wave, ablating the renal vessel around its perimeter, acting on at least 4-6 points of the artery on its nerve fibers. The procedure is monitored using a computer system: the doctor observes the location of the balloon, temperature, and pressure exerted on the vessel walls.
The operation lasts about 40 minutes under local anesthesia. The patient is discharged the next day. The result can be immediate or may occur within several weeks. On average, pressure decreases by 32/12 mm Hg.
