Techniques used in the coronary circulation may be useful in peripheral intervention. We report a case of bilateral renal artery stenosis treated via a radial approach by direct stenting with distal protection at a right ostial lesion and modified crush stenting at a left renal bifurcation lesion using paclitaxel‐eluting stents.
