Numerous problems can be dealt with, and in our experience these have included the diagnosis and treatment of ureteric obstruction, dilatation of renal artery stenoses, drainage of abscesses, hematomas and lymphoceles, management of complications of pancreatitis and treatment of bleeding due to fistulas and pseudoaneurysms.
