Renal pseudoaneurysm after core-needle biopsy of renal allograft successfully managed with superselective embolization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Renal biopsy of the allograft is important to evaluate renal dysfunction (1). Rare complications like pseudoaneurysm (PA) can develop and could lead to life-threatening bleeding (2, 3). It can be safely and effectively managed by endovascular embolization yielding good renal function in the long term follow-up (4, 5). We describe a PA of a kidney transplant (KTX) associated with arteriovenous fistula (AVF) at the site of a core needle percutaneous biopsy (CNPB).

DESIGN We evaluated the incidence and history of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) after kidney biopsy and assessed the use of superselective embolization for treatment. OBSERVATIONS During the last 10 years, 896 kidney biopsies (age range of the patients: 1 month-18.6 years) have been performed in our institution under real-time ultrasonographic guidance with a 14 gauge cutting biopsy needle, and ...
متن کاملA Case of Intraparenchymal Pseudoaneurysms in Kidney Allograft
BACKGROUND Percutaneous needle biopsy is routinely performed for renal allograft management. Vascular complications of the procedure include pseudoaneurysm and arterio-venous fistulae formation. Delayed diagnosis of these complications is due to their mostly asymptomatic and indolent nature. CASE REPORT We present a case of extensive intraparenchymal pseudoaneurysm formation within the inferior...

Aim of the Work: To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of endovascular techniques in the management of gross hematuria caused by iatrogenic renal vascular injury. Specifically, we aimed to assess different embolic agents, different methods of embolization and their impact on the renal parenchymal loss and renal function. Patients and Methods: This is a single institutional study carried out ...
متن کاملPseudoaneurysm with severe haematuria in renal allograft after renal biopsy treated by percutaneous embolization.
A 61-year-old lady received a cadaveric renal transplant in March 1996. On the seventh post-operative day, a renal allograft biopsy was performed under ultrasound guidance. The patient developed severe haematuria requiring a 2-U blood transfusion. Duplex scanning demonstrated a pseudoaneurysm (2.532.9 cm) at the upper pole of the kidney (Figure 1). Arteriography demonstrated two pseudoaneurysms...
متن کاملEmbolization of renal artery pseudoaneurysm following laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for central renal tumor: A report of two cases
Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy has recently emerged as a minimally invasive treatment for small- to moderate-sized renal tumors. Renal artery pseudoaneurysms (RAPs) have been well-reported in patients with renal trauma or who have undergone percutaneous urological procedures, including biopsy, nephrostomy and percutaneous nephroureterolithotomy. However, RAP following laparoscopic partial nep...
