[Renal artery pseudoaneurysm following partial nephrectomy: a case report with a current literature review].

Renal artery pseudoaneurysm (RAP) is a well-documented complication of percutaneous urologic procedures (biopsy, nephrostomy, nephrolithotomy) and renal trauma. Only few cases occurring after partial nephrectomy for cancer have been reported in the literature. We describe the case of one patient who presented with postoperative haemorrhage due to a RAP after partial nephrectomy. He has been successfully treated by angiographic selective embolization. This complication is rare but potentially life threatening. We describe its clinical and radiological diagnosis, and its management along with the current medical literature.
