Endovascular treatment of renal arteriovenous malformations

Urol Int. 2005;74(1):89-91. doi: 10.1159/000082716.

Abstract

We report a case of renal arteriovenous malformation treated with superselective endovascular embolization using a light mixture of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate and Lipiodol. Diagnostic imaging modalities and treatment methods are discussed. In conclusion, successful superselective embolization should be the standard of care.
