Hemorrhagic Renal Angiomyolipoma in Pregnancy Effectively Managed by Immediate Cesarean Section and Elective Transcatheter Arterial Embolization: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is a benign renal tumor with a risk of rupture in intratumoral aneurysms. Although renal AML in pregnancy is rare, risk of rupture is greater. Management for AML and childbirth is important during pregnancy; however, it is undefined yet. We present a case of hemorrhagic angiomyolipoma in pregnancy that is effectively managed by immediate cesarean section and elective transcatheter arterial embolization.

متن کاملEmbolisation of Bleeding Renal Angiomyolipoma in Pregnancy
Bleeding from renal angiomyolipoma in pregnancy can be catastrophic to both mother and fetus. Selective arterial embolisation is considered more superior than conventional surgery in these patients. Our case report exemplifies how a bleeding angiomyolipoma was halted with embolisation in our pregnant patient.
