Abstract:
A 45-year-old female presented with gross hematuria. Right renal arteriovenous malformation on abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography necessitated urgent transcatheter arterial embolization. Right renal digital subtraction angiography revealed a single tortuous and dilated vessel converging to an aneurysmal dilated vein. To selectively embolize the malformation, we closed the arterial side with a microballoon and attempted glue embolization; filling occurred unexpectedly early, and another balloon on the vein side helped control the renal vein blood flow. Glue embolization was performed without adverse events. Glue embolization for high-flow arteriovenous malformation under balloon occlusion-mediated inflow and outflow control can effectively and safely embolize complete target vessels.
