The paper analyzes experience of the surgical treatment of bilateral lesions of the renal arteries in 52 patients who were subjected to 64 operations. The authors have shown that lesions of the both renal arteries in patients with renovascular hypertension can be observed in 28,9% of cases. In most cases atherosclerosis and aorto-arteritis are responsible for such lesions. The authors support the two-step operations in bilateral lesions of the renal arteries. Late results of such operations are favourable in 82% of cases.
