Abstract
Renal artery aneurysm (RAA) is a rare disease. With modern non-invasive imaging modalities, the disease is being increasingly diagnosed. It is a slow-growing aneurysm with high mortality in the event of rupture; especially in pregnant females for in which case patients were treated surgically. With advances in endovascular therapy, numerous techniques have been employed to manage complex RAA in artery bifurcation, branch and segmental arteries with excellent technical and clinical success. The various recent techniques include the use of flow diverter stents, remodelling with stent-assisted coil embolization (SACE), balloon-assisted coil embolization (BACE), selective embolization with coils-sac packing, inflow occlusion and coil trapping and selective embolization with liquid embolic agents-hystroacril and onyx. A combination of stent-graft with liquid embolization and liquid with microcoil embolization has been advocated with success. The most common complication encountered is renal infarction. This is mostly without impairment of renal function and secondary to embolization. Endovascular therapy has shorter operative time, less blood loss, shorter intensive care stay, done under conscious sedation and is associated with les...Continue Reading
