Renal sympathetic denervation in resistant arterial hypertension: long term and updated results.

The present paper is an extension to our earlier publication (Šochman et al. 2016) documenting a beneficial effect of renal sympathetic denervation on pharmacologically uncontrollable hypertension in a group of seven patients followed up for 1-2 years post-procedure. The same patients remained on ambulatory follow-up for another 5-6 years, with the beneficial effect persisting throughout the follow-up period while on the same medication.
