Renal arteriovenous fistula: a rare complication of electro-hydraulic lithotripsy.
نویسنده
چکیده
Renal arteriovenous fistula (rAVF) is an uncommon condition, usually iatrogenic and in most cases caused by percutaneous renal needle biopsy. This is a report of rAVF following flexible ureteroscopic electro-hydraulic lithotripsy of a lower pole renal calculus and its subsequent management. A high index of suspicion is required for the diagnosis of this rare complication, which is easily treated by radiological intervention.

Arteriovenous fistula: a rare complication of nephrectomy in a child with Wilms tumour.
The case of a 13-year-old boy with a renal arteriovenous fistula in the left renal pedicle after nephrectomy is presented. The fistula was successfully managed by percutaneous transluminal embolization with coils sparing the patient the burden of surgery. Attention is drawn to the very rare incidence of this complication after nephrectomy in children with Wilms tumour.
متن کاملSPLENIC ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA: A RARE LESION CAUSING BLEEDING ESOPHAGEAL VARICES
We report a case of a 40 year old man with portal hypertension caused by a splenic arteriovenous fistula that was diagnosed at laparotomy. He presented with bleeding esophageal varices and was initially treated by sclerotherapy. At laparotomy, portal pressure was 40 cmH20 but fell to 20 cm H20 after the fistula was treated with splenectomy. All symptoms disappeared shortly after operation ...

Renal arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is an uncommon anomaly characterized by the communication between renal arteries and veins. Renal AVFs are often asymptomatic but are occasionally accompanied by hematuria or heart failure. Transcatheter closure with embolization is a safe and effective treatment for renal AVF. We herein report an 87-year-old patient with heart failure due to renal AVF who was ...
متن کاملEndovascular management of iatrogenic renal arterial lesions and clinical outcomes.
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate iatrogenic renal arterial lesions, including pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, and arteriocaliceal fistula, their management by endovascular embolization, and the clinical results. METHODS Fifty-five patients (forty males, fifteen females) with a median age of 40 years (range, 8-85 years), who underwent endovascular embolization of iatrogenic renal arterial l...
متن کاملArterio-venous fistula with pseudoaneurysm of renal artery.
INTRODUCTION The authors describe a rare but potentially severe, sometimes even life-threatening complication occurring after various invasive renal interventions. The cause that gives rise to a fistula formation between close branches of renal artery and vein is an injury of these vessels during resection of a localised renal tumour, renal biopsy, percutaneous nephrostomy, and even blunt injur...
