Multiple renal arteries are common, and their damage can lead to ischemia in the segments they supply. Renal infarction is a rare condition with a nonspecific presentation, primarily caused by embolism from the heart. The association between these entities has only been described in renal transplant recipients. We present the case of a patient with renal infarction of an unknown etiology in a native kidney with multiple renal arteries, an association not previously described in the literature.
多支肾动脉很常见,其损伤可导致它们所供血区域的缺血。肾梗死是一种罕见病症,表现不具特异性,主要由心脏栓子引起。这些情况之间的关联仅在肾移植受者中有所描述。我们报告一例病因不明的肾梗死患者,其梗死发生在有多个肾动脉的自体肾中,这种关联此前文献中未曾描述。
