Is your transmission line a microstrip or strip line construction ?
If your CAD system supports it, just design the transmission line as
"optimal rounded bend", such you avoid problems with impedance steps or
radiating (radius as large as possible).
A good listing of non-90-edge routing is delivered by Wadell/Transmssionline
Design Handbook,
chapter 5.5.
