Abstract

We present the case of a young woman who went to the Emergency Departent with macroscopic and anaemic haematuria. We also confirm that, when faced with the possibility of finding an arteriovenous fistula, arteriography is the best choice for diagnosis, and the best option for treatment is selective embolization.
