Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 85 years.
  • Subject or subject's legal representative have been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to participate and has signed an IRB approved consent form.
  • Subject understands the duration of the study and it's follow up visit requirements.
  • Unilateral or bilateral atherosclerotic de novo renal artery stenosis (RAS) associated with any or all of the following:
  • SBP \>140 despite ≥3 anti-hypertensive medications
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) ≥30-≤70 cc/min calculated using the Modified Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula
  • Recurrent episodes of decompensated heart failure
  • Recurrent episodes of "flash" pulmonary edema
  • Angiographic Inclusion Criteria
  • ≥70% \<100% renal artery stenosis (by visual estimate) involving unilateral, bilateral renal arteries or solitary renal artery.
  • Renal pole-to-pole length \>7cm.
  • Lesion ≤15 mm from the aorto-ostial junction.
  • Renal artery reference lumen diameter ≥3.5 - ≤7 mm for FiberNet placement.

Exclusion

  • Clinical Exclusion Criteria
  • Estimated life expectancy \<12 months.
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) \<30 cc/min.
  • Renal pole-to-pole length \<7cm on side of diseased kidney.
  • No history of transplanted kidneys or polycystic kidney disease.
  • Uncontrolled hypercoagulability.
  • Known allergies or sensitivities to heparin, aspirin, other anti-coagulant/antiplatelet therapies, nitinol and stainless steel.
  • Known allergy to contrast media that cannot adequately be pre-medicated prior to study procedure.
  • Patient refuses possible temporary or permanent hemodialysis.
  • Refuses possible surgery for repair of access site or renal artery.
  • Known severe coronary or carotid disease likely to require surgical treatment after enrollment or during follow-up period.
  • Uncompensated congestive heart failure.
  • Current enrollment in any investigational study wherein patient participation has not been completed.
  • Cardiovascular surgical or cardiovascular interventional procedures (including, but not limited to, aortic, renal, cardiac, carotid, femoro-popliteal, and below the knee) within 30 days prior to enrollment in this study.
  • Planned or predicted cardiovascular surgical or interventional procedures outside of the affected renal artery (including, but not limited to, aortic, renal, cardiac, carotid, contralateral femoro-popliteal, and contralateral below the knee) within 30 days after entry into this study and prior to completion of the 30 day follow-up.
  • Pregnancy, breast-feeding or plans to become pregnant in female of child bearing potential.
  • Any patient who in the opinion of the investigator would not be a good candidate for enrollment.
  • Angiographic Exclusion Criteria
  • Early bifurcation of the main renal artery preventing complete embolic protection of the kidney with the FiberNet.
  • Fibromuscular Dysplasia.
  • Presence of thrombus at the lesion site.
  • Non-ostial atherosclerosis (lesion \>15mm from the renal ostium).
  • Subintimal guidewire placement resulting in dissection of the renal artery or aorta, or perforation of the renal artery or aorta prior to deployment of the device.
  • Severe calcification likely to prevent the passage of the device. -
