Arteriovenous fistula of the kidney is a common complication of percutaneous needle biopsy with a reported incidence of as high as 15% in some series. Although a few cases eventually may develop hypertension, cardiomegaly, or congestive heart failure, most heal spontaneously within 1-18 months. Those which do not heal within this time are usually treated surgically and consequently there is little available information concerning the long-term conservative management of this problem. The subject of this report is a patient who has been followed medically for 10 years and who, despite the persistence of a large fistula, remains in good health.
肾动静脉瘘是经皮肾穿刺活检的常见并发症，在某些系列报道中发生率高达15%。虽然少数病例最终可能发展为高血压、心脏扩大或充血性心力衰竭，但大多数在1 - 18个月内自愈。那些在此期间未愈合的通常通过手术治疗，因此关于该问题长期保守治疗的可用信息很少。本报告的主题是一名接受了10年医学随访的患者，尽管存在较大的动静脉瘘，但仍健康状况良好。
