BACKGROUND Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) and renovascular fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) are 2 of the most common etiologies of renovascular hypertension. They have different pathophysiologies, risk factors, presentations, and treatment options. However, as our population ages, it can become increasingly common to see patients who previously had FMD who develop ARAS at an advanced age, indicated by recurrent renovascular hypertension. CASE REPORT We present a case of a 66-year-old female patient who, in 2007, had presented with uncontrolled hypertension. She underwent magnetic resonance angiography and was found to have bilateral FMD, for which she received balloon angioplasty to a severe lesion on the mid-right renal artery and subsequently had normalization of blood pressures and resolution of symptoms. In 2021 she returned with uncontrolled hypertension while being treated with 3 antihypertensives. Bilateral renal arteriography revealed new severe ostial stenosis of the left renal artery and a patent right renal artery in which balloon angioplasty was performed 14 years ago. Based on the angiographic pattern of this new left RAS, we concluded this lesion was caused by atherosclerosis. The left ostial lesion was treated with a bare-metal stent and the patient was continued on antihypertensive medication and statin; at follow-up 4 months later, her blood pressures had normalized. CONCLUSIONS This case features a patient who developed severe ARAS with underlying history of bilateral renal artery FMD. Clinicians need to be aware that in patients with FMD, worsening renovascular hypertension at an advanced age could indicate the development of new hemodynamically significant ARAS. These patients need repeat diagnostic testing and treatment with medial optimization with or without endovascular revascularization in the appropriate clinical setting.
