Objectives: To determine the association between Renal artery stenosis (RAS) and coronary artery disease (CAD), and to compare this with normotensive and non CAD patients.
Materials and Methods: This was a cross sectional study, conducted at Radiology/Cardiology departments of Mardan Medical Complex (MMC), Mardan. Normotensive patients and hypertensive patients both were included in this study while those patients with known kidney disease were excluded from the study.
Results: A total 90 patients were included in study having mean mean age of 45.5 ± 13. RAS-CAD association was evaluated by several parameter in both normotensive and hypertensive patients. The independent t-test among coronary artery disease and renal artery revealed a significant association (p=0.001).
Conclusion: The study concluded that progression of Renal Artery Stenosis (RAS) had a strong association with development of coronary artery disease (CAD).
