Intrarenal pseudoaneurysm after percutaneous nephrolithotomy: angiotomographic assessment and endovascular management

Abstract

We report a case of intrarenal pseudoaneurysm of the right kidney after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in supine position. Diagnosis was established by angiotomography with a 3-D reconstruction. Treatment was successfully achieved by endovascular occlusion using N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate.
