Life threatening bleeding from arcuate kidney artery aneurysm as a rare complication of granulomatosis with polyangiitis

Combination of Sac packing and liquid embolization using Double Microcatheter Technique for Renal Artery Aneurysm: A Case Report

“…Aneurysm clipping, aneurysmal parent artery resection, angioplasty, and bypass grafting are the most classical treatment modalities with high success rates and low complications [16][17][18][19][20]. A review of the literature over the last 4 years shows that renal aneurysms are increasingly treated with endovascular techniques [11,[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] (Table 2). The techniques used in endovascular therapy are varied, including endovascular coiling, remodeling techniques (such as balloon-and stent-assisted coiling), covered stent implantation, and flow diverter [8,21,[40][41][42][43][44][45].…”

Rupture of Renal Artery Aneurysm in a Patient with Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis

“…A literature search using PubMed that included the terms “aneurysm” and “granulomatosis with polyangiitis” or “Wegener’s granulomatosis” was conducted. To date, nine published reports in the English language involving 10 GPA patients who had renal artery aneurysms were identified ( Table 2 ) (2) , (3) , (4) , (5) , (6) , (7) , (8) , (9) , (10) . Among them, four patients experienced rupture of renal artery aneurysms after the diagnosis of GPA and became hemorrhagic shock.…”
