Giant renal artery pseudoaneurysm 18 months after blunt trauma

Abstract: Renal artery pseudoaneurysms are uncommon vascular lesions that require a high degree of suspicion because they are usually difficult to diagnose. Posttraumatic renal artery pseudoaneurysms should be treated because spontaneous resolution is extremely unusual, and the risk of aneurysm rupture is high. We describe the case of a patient who presented with a pulsatile mass in the right upper quadrant and recurrent abdominal pain 18 months after blunt trauma. Arteriography and multislice computed tomography angiog… Show more

“…Eles ocorrem em 0,1%-0,2% dos angiogramas de diagnóstico e 3,5%-5,5% dos procedimentos de intervenção. 3 No caso de biópsia guiada por imagem, o tamanho da agulha da biópsia foi considerado proporcional à taxa de complicações. 4 A incidência de pseudoaneurisma foi relatada como maior com o uso de trombolíticos, medicamentos antiplaquetários, anticoagulantes, 5 bem como em pacientes com baixa Optou-se pela embolização com molas de liberação não controlada do pseudoaneurisma por serem as disponíveis no serviço.…”

“…O Pseudoaneurisma da Artéria Renal (PAR) é uma complicação vascular rara, a qual está associada etiologicamente com nefrectomia parcial, procedimentos percutâneos, biópsia renal, trauma penetrante e, mais raramente, trauma contuso. [1][2][3] Dentre as causas, as traumáticas ou iatrogênicas são as mais frequentes. 4 Para o diagnóstico dessa lesão vascular, existem vários exames complementares disponíveis como a ultrassonografia com Doppler, arteriografia, angiotomografia, cintilografia renal e a ressonância magnética.…”
