Renal Artery Disease Patient Care Guide What is renal artery disease? The main renal artery becomes narrowed or blocked by a gradual build up of a fatty substance called plaque within the artery wall. This causes reduced blood flow to the kidney(s), leading to insufficient renal function and/or an hypertension (increase in blood pressure). The plaque may continue to build up until the
