Summary
Ruptured renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) are rare but dangerous. Successful endovascular repair was achieved by packing the aneurysm with detachable coils, offering a minimally invasive treatment option.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Radiology
Background:
- Renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) are uncommon vascular lesions.
- RAA rupture poses a significant, life-threatening risk.
Observation:
- A case of a ruptured RAA is presented.
- The patient underwent endovascular treatment.
Findings:
- Successful aneurysm packing was achieved using Guglielmi and interlocking detachable coils.
- Endovascular coiling provided effective treatment for the ruptured RAA.
Implications:
- This case highlights the efficacy of endovascular coiling for ruptured RAAs.
- Minimally invasive techniques offer a viable alternative for managing complex vascular pathologies.

Aneurysm management involves either conservative medical therapy or surgical intervention, depending on the size and symptoms of the aneurysm. Conservative management is generally reserved for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms, while larger or symptomatic aneurysms often necessitate surgical repair.Conservative Medical TherapyFor small, asymptomatic aneurysms, particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) less than 5.5 centimeters in diameter, conservative medical therapy is recommended.

Vigilant monitoring for aneurysm rupture is essential for patients undergoing aortic surgery.Preoperative Nursing ManagementContinuously monitor the patient for manifestations of aneurysm rupture, such as pallor, weakness, tachycardia, hypotension, abdominal, back, groin, or periumbilical pain, changes in consciousness, and a pulsating abdominal mass. Regularly assess the patient's peripheral pulses.Instruct the patient to consume a clear liquid diet the day before surgery and administer...

DefinitionRenal angiography, also known as renal arteriography, is an imaging technique used to obtain a comprehensive view of blood flow and the vascular structure of blood vessels in the kidneys and surrounding areas.PurposeRenal angiography detects blood vessel abnormalities in the kidneys, such as aneurysms, stenosis, thrombosis, vascular tumors, and renal artery stenosis. It evaluates kidney function and guides interventional treatments like angioplasty or stent placement.Pre-Procedure...
