We describe the treatment of a renal artery aneurysm with complex anatomy using coils and the PipelineTM Embolization Device (Medtronic, Irvine, CA), a flow-diverting stent typically used for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms.
A 62-year-old female with history of an asymptomatic right renal artery aneurysm that was discovered incidentally 10 years ago was found to have enlargement of the aneurysm (1.9cm to 2.7cm) on a repeat surveillance CT scan. She was successfully treated with combined Pipeline Embolization Device and coil embolization of the aneurysm sac.
Post-procedural angiography showed complete occlusion of the aneurysm with maintenance of perfusion to the entire kidney.
Pipeline assisted coil embolization may be an option for parenchyma-sparing treatment of renal artery aneurysms with complex anatomy.
我们描述了使用线圈和 PipelineTM 栓塞装置(美敦力,欧文,加利福尼亚)治疗具有复杂解剖结构的肾动脉动脉瘤的情况,该装置是一种通常用于治疗颅内动脉瘤的血流导向支架。
一名 62 岁女性,10 年前偶然发现无症状的右肾动脉动脉瘤,在重复 CT 扫描时发现动脉瘤增大(1.9cm 至 2.7cm)。她成功地接受了 Pipeline 栓塞装置联合线圈栓塞治疗。
术后血管造影显示动脉瘤完全闭塞,整个肾脏的灌注得以维持。
对于具有复杂解剖结构的肾动脉动脉瘤,Pipeline 辅助线圈栓塞可能是一种保留实质的治疗选择。
