Video Summary

A 50-year-old man with severe isolated systolic hypertension, multiple cardiovascular comorbidities, and stage 3 CKD underwent ultrasound-guided renal denervation using the Recor system after evaluation ruled out secondary causes and confirmed suitable renal anatomy. The procedure used IVUS sizing, selective angiography, minimal contrast, and targeted treatment of both renal arteries with a balloon-based catheter. He was treated under moderate sedation, discharged the same day, and at two-month follow-up had improved systolic blood pressure, stopped hydralazine and nifedipine, and maintained stable renal function.
