  • Title: Massive Hematuria Due to Congenital Renal Arteriovenous Malformation Successfully Treated by Renal Artery Embolization.
    Author: Varyanit N, Mathew C, Mammen KJ, Calton R.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 2018 Mar; 66(3):83-5. PubMed ID: 30341878.
    Abstract:
    Congenital renal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare benign vascular lesions and a rare cause of massive hematuria in females predominantly involving right kidney. Clinical presentation in a male with involvement of the left kidney is very rare. Only a few case series describing the outcome of congenital renal AVMs have been reported in the literature. We report a challenging case of a male patient with life threatening massive hematuria with congenital renal AVMs in left kidney. Successful embolization was performed using coils and gel foam.
