GLUE EMBOLIZATION IN RENAL TRAUMA WITH MASSIVE HEMATURIA
Abstract
Two cases of renal trauma presented with massive hematuria. In the first case, renal angiography revealed traumatic AVF confined to the upper pole of left kidney. The renal angiography in the second case revealed two false aneurysms at the lower pole of right kidney. The super-selective angiography of the feeding arteries was done and glue embolization was performed. Post-embolized angiogram showed complete occlusion of the AVF and aneurysms. No further hematuria is observed.
AVF = Arterio - Venous Fistula.
