Endovascular treatment of renal artery aneurysms with conventional non‐detachable microcoils and Guglielmi detachable coils

Abstract: Objective  To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endovascular occlusion of true renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) with conventional non‐detachable microcoils (NDCs) and Guglielmi detachable coils (GDCs). Patients and methods  Over a 5‐year period, 12 RAAs were treated by endovascular selective embolization. Four RAAs were occluded using NDCs and eight were treated with GDCs. All coils were delivered through a microcatheter. Eight RAAs were located in the bifurcation of the main renal artery, two in the main renal… Show more

“…5 Options of treatment are represented by aneurysmectomy with simple arterial repair, bypass grafting, in situ segmental resection with end-to-end anastomosis, extracorporeal repair with autotransplantation and endovascular techniques. In particular, in the past few years, endovascular techniques have become a popular treatment modality for uncomplicated RAA, including options such as coil embolization 6 and stent grafting. 7 Although less invasive techniques represent the first-line treatment for RAA, complex pathologies can preclude the use of endovascular procedures.…”

“…The clinical relevance of incidentally discovered RAAs remains the subject of debate, with uncertainty regarding the threshold for intervention. 8 However, there is a consensus that repair should be performed in pregnant women or those of childbearing age, in cases with evidence of embolization, 5 in symptomatic aneurysms (flank pain, hypertension, hematuria), and in rapidly expanding aneurysms and those larger than 2 cm. 6 The case described concerns a young male diagnosed with hypertension three years earlier and under antihypertensive therapy.…”

“…4 Pregnant women, female patients of childbearing age, and patients with evidence of embolization are candidates for surgical or endovascular intervention. 5 Other causes for such interventions are symptomatic aneurysms (flank pain, hypertension, hematuria), rapidly expanding aneurysms and those larger than 2 cm. 6 The choice of treatment of RAAs is determined by the anatomic location of the aneurysm.…”

“…As micromolas permitem uma liberação precisa após a confirmação da correta posição da mola através da arteriografia. Essa técnica reduz o risco de migração da mola, apresentando melhor resultado imediato 14 . A presença de um colo longo e estreito é um achado anatômico que auxilia na prevenção do deslocamento inadvertido das molas 1,15 .…”
