  • Title: Inferior suprarenal artery aneurysm in polyarteritis nodosa.
    Author: Oğuzkurt L, Cekirge S, Balkanci F.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1997 Mar; 27(3):234-5. PubMed ID: 9126577.
    Abstract:
    A 16-year-old boy with the complaints of fever, abdominal pain, arthralgia and hypertension was found to have polyarteritis nodosa. Selective renal angiography disclosed a 5-mm microaneurysm of the right inferior suprarenal artery, which has not been previously reported in polyarteritis nodosa. Aside from the diagnostic view-point, some of the perirenal and retroperitoneal hemorrhages of unknown origin seen in polyarteritis nodosa might be due to the rupture of suprarenal artery aneurysms.
