Abstract:
Renal emergencies necessitate prompt diagnosis and management to stop active bleeding and retain kidney function. Causes of renal emergencies can be classified into traumatic, atraumatic, iatrogenic, and obstructive etiologies. Interventional radiology (IR) has emerged as an acceptable alternative to surgical treatment in the management of renal emergencies due to its minimally invasive nature. With the rise of interventional procedures, there is a need for further discussion of angiographic and fluoroscopic imaging in the setting of renal emergencies.
