Heather L. Gornik, MD, MHS, Director Noninvasive Vascular Laboratory Cleveland Clinic, discusses the treatment of FMD or fibromuscular dysplasia, which depends on the vascular beds involved and the patient’s clinical symptoms.

Summary:
Renal FMD is best treated by balloon angioplasty. Stents are not recommended for renal or carotid FMD and those patients with carotid pathology must be screened for intracranial aneurysms.
