Repair of renal artery aneurysm with stent angiography and coil embolization
2021
Renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) are rare and are frequently discovered incidentally during the workup for other renal issues. Open surgery has been a popular approach to managing RAAs; however, endovascular techniques have recently emerged as a less invasive option. Endovascular therapy involves stent angiography and coil embolization of the aneurysm. RAA classification (type 1, 2, and 3) is determined by its anatomical location and shape, which has been demonstrated to affect whether an open or an endovascular method is most suitable. We report two patients with type 1 RAAs and a history of hypertension who were successfully repaired endovascularly using VBX stents.
