Renal artery anastomotic pseudoaneurysms are rare after renal transplantation. The etiology tends to be technical, infectious, or degenerative, and repair is difficult with a high postsurgical complication rate. We report the first case of a complex autotransplant renal artery pseudoaneurysm repaired with kissing covered stents. A 52-year-old woman presented with severe left lower quadrant abdominal pain 6 years after a renal autotransplant for ureteral stenosis and recurrent pyelonephritis. A computed tomographic angiography (CTA) scan revealed a bilobed aneurysm arising at the anastomosis between the renal and common iliac arteries. Kissing covered stents were placed within the common iliac artery proximally and extending into the transplant renal artery and external iliac artery. Postdeployment angiography confirmed complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm and excellent flow into the transplant kidney and left lower extremity. A follow-up CTA scan at 1 month revealed continued stent-graft patency and complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm. An endovascular approach to transplant anastomotic pseduoaneurysms using kissing covered stents is a viable option to exclude aneurysmal changes and preserve flow to the transplanted organ in carefully selected patients.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a venotomy and manual propulsion technique that is performed to treat failed native arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) with chronic organized thrombi.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of airway complications and survival with special reference to radiation therapy in the care of patients undergoing covered stent placement for malignant esophageal strictures.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) using internally cooled wet electrodes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transhepatic drainage of inaccessible postoperative intraabdominal abscesses under sonographic and fluoroscopic guidance.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of pulmonary artery occlusion with ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer in patients with hemoptysis.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of esophageal complications associated with balloon dilation and their management in patients with malignant esophageal strictures.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to compare the effectiveness of microwave ablation (MWA) and multipolar radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in vivo using two internally cooled probes.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to compare the clinical effectiveness and complications of externally and internally covered stents for the treatment of benign urethral strictures.
OBJECTIVE. This study was designed to evaluate the frequency, morphological patterns, sequential changes, and clinical significance of venous thrombosis after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to investigate the incidence and management of esophageal rupture caused by balloon dilation in patients with benign esophageal strictures.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to retrospectively evaluate local control and survival after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with liver metastases arising from extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who had previously undergone curative resection.
OBJECTIVE. Imaging-guided parenchymal liver biopsy for diffuse liver disease is increasingly performed via an epigastric route from the left lobe, as opposed to the more traditional intercostal right-sided approach.
OBJECTIVE. Popliteal vascular entrapment syndrome is an uncommon congenital abnormality of the anatomic relations between the popliteal vessels and the neighboring musculotendinous structures. The purpose of this essay is to describe the CT angiographic findings in the diagnosis and treatment of this syndrome.
AIM: To evaluate long-term complications and survival in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) referred to a Danish transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) centre.
