Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of transcatheter arterial embolization for congenital renal arteriovenous malformation.Methods Seven cases of congenital renal arteriovenous malformation causing gross hematuria were retrospectively studied.All of 7 cases were demonstrated by means of angiography and then the catheter was placed superselectively into the involved arterial end of the malformation undertaking embolization with gelfoam,dehydrated ethanol,coils,etc.Results All the malformations of the 7 cases were successfully embolized with stoppage of gross hematuria within 24 hours.No serious complications occurred except lumbago,fever,gastrointestinal reaction for one week.There was no recurrence of haematuria and the renal function was also normal in all cases during the follow-up for 36 to 98 months.Conclusions Transcatheter renal arterial angiography and embolization are the important and effective management for the diagnosis and treatment of congenital renal arteriovenous malformation.
