Abstract
We report on emergency percutaneous renal artery stenting in two children who developed acute anuria due to bilateral renal artery stenosis and near-total occlusion. In both children, urine output could be reestablished following the procedure. One patient died from persistent severe cardiac failure. Emergency stenting is feasible, and may buy time for future procedures.
